In Times Like These, Every Dollar Counts (60 second audio script)

ANCR: In times like these, it can be difficult for people with limited income to make ends meet. This Mother's Day, consider doing something for Mom that can really make a difference. Show her how to get help with her Medicare prescription drug costs. The cost of medicine can be a burden on people with limited income and resources, but help is available through Social Security - extra help that will pay part of Mom's monthly premiums, annual deductibles, and prescription co-payments. The extra help could save Mom an average of $3,900 per year. So give an extra-special Mother's Day gift this year; tell Mom about the extra help available and help her apply. After all, in times like these, every dollar counts. Visit our website at www dot social security dot gov to learn more, or call 1-800-772-1213.
