Medicare/Medicaid

Medicare and Medicaid are two distinct government-sponsored health insurance programs in the United States, each catering to different groups of people and possessing unique eligibility criteria and coverage options.

Medicare is typically available to individuals aged 65 and older, as well as to those under 65 who have a qualifying disability. In contrast, Medicaid offers health coverage to individuals and families who have limited income and resources.
