Seniors 65 and over - Has Drug Coverage, but Cost Share is Unaffordable

Elderly Pharmaceutical Insurance Coverage (EPIC) Program

EPIC is a prescription assistance program for people 65 years of age and older living in New York State. Seniors are eligible if they have an annual income of $35,000 or less if single, or $50,000 or less if married.

If you receive full Medicaid benefits or have other prescription coverage that is better than EPIC, then you are not eligible for EPIC benefits.
