    That sounds like a lot to manage every month, especially when healthcare costs keep adding up. It may be worth contacting your State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) for free, unbiased help reviewing your Medicare coverage and checking whether you qualify for any savings programs. I hope you’re able to find an option that makes these expenses more manageable.
