Good Afternoon,
Please find attached CMS memo regarding the 2018 guidance on the updated resource limits for individuals who apply and qualify for the low-income subsidy (LIS). CMS also announced
the maximum co-payments that LIS-eligible beneficiaries, including full-benefit dual eligible and partial dual eligible individuals, will pay as enrollees of Medicare prescription drug plans in 2018.
The 2018 income amounts will be released in early 2018 after the federal poverty levels are released.
