Important notes about LIS: • MSP recipients automatically qualify for full LIS level 1. • Connecticut residents should consider applying for LIS through MSP because MSP has no asset restrictions and higher income guidelines. • Beneficiaries who have LIS will be randomly assigned to a benchmark Part D plan if they do not select a plan on their own. Beneficiaries with Extra Help who are enrolled in a benchmark plan will have a $0 monthly premium for their coverage. However, they still benefit from a plan comparison to determine the best plan that covers all their medications. • Individuals entitled to LIS who do not yet have a Part D plan can be eligible for immediate drug coverage through LI NET.
