The Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled (PAAD) program, the Lifeline program, and the Hearing Aid Assistance to the Aged and Disabled (HAAAD) program are three State programs with similar eligibility guidelines. You may be eligible for PAAD if you meet the following requirements:

• A New Jersey resident; and

• 65 years of age or older or 18 years of age or older and receiving Social Security Title II Disability benefits; and

• Annual income for 2011 of less than $24,432 if single or less than $29,956 if married; and

• Medicare-eligible PAAD beneficiaries are also required to enroll in a standard Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Plan in New Jersey with a monthly premium below the regional benchmark. These plans will cover medically necessary prescription medications under Medicare Part D. The federal Medicare Plan and PAAD will pay any costs above the PAAD copayment of $5 for each covered generic drug or $7 for each covered brand name drug, including premiums.
