If I call Social Securitys toll-free number can a Social Security representative take my application for extra help with the costs related to my Medicare prescription drug plan over the phone?
For the fastest service, apply online at www.socialsecurity.gov/prescriptionhelp. However, if you call Social Security at 1-800-772-1213 and an interviewer is available, he or she may be able to take your application over the phone. If an interviewer is not immediately available, we can schedule a telephone appointment for you.
