Medicare Savings Plan Glitch

By Karen on June 14, 2016 in Front Page Announcement Only

UPDATE: There will be no interruption of the Medicare Savings Plan!!! (Unless your client actually no longer qualifies for it.)

“We want to make sure that people who received the incorrect letter understand that they won’t see a reduction in their Social Security checks because of this error,” said Chris Priest, deputy director of Medical Services for MDHHS. “We quickly corrected the mistake before any checks went out and are working now with our federal partners. MDHHS understands the worries that this faulty information caused seniors and other residents. We apologize for the confusion caused by the system error.” http://www.michigan.gov/minewswire/0,4629,7-136-3452-386969–,00.html

I just found out that there was a mistake made in Lansing that affects people whose Medicare premiums are paid by Social Security. Those premiums are not being paid until this issue is fixed. This means that your Social Security is probably going to be decreased. Both Social Security and DHHS are aware of this situation. Any small increases in SNAP amounts are only temporary.
