MAPD Client Now Gets Medicaid

Rookie question here: I enrolled a woman last year into a Humana MAPD in Cook County, Illinois (aka "Crook" County) ;). Anyway, over the many months of 2015, she quit her part time job and now is enrolled in Medicaid. According to her daughter, Medicaid is paying her Medicare Part B premiums.
My understanding is that she now automatically qualifies for "Extra Help" with her drugs. If so, what happens to her existing Humana MAPD plan? The Humana MAPD drug copays no longer align with the Extra Help guidelines of $2.95 for generic and $7.40 brand-name drugs. Any insights? Thanks
