Medicare and Medicaid

Medicare is a federally-governed social insurance program providing hospital and medical care for the elderly and certain disabled members of the general population. Medicaid is a social welfare health and medical services program for low income individuals and families.  Although the supervision of the program is at the federal level, each state institutes their own standards for eligibility, regulates the services (including the types, amount, duration and scope), determines the equivalent rate for services and manages its own Medicaid program.
