Medicare 101

In the United States, the government has set up or sponsored an insurance program that is aimed towards helping senior citizens or people who are over 65 years old. Called “Medicare,” the program provides medical coverage for the people belonging to this age group, as well as to people who are disabled and those that are suffering from End-Stage Renal Diseases. Since they’re not able to fend off for themselves, the government makes it financially easy for them procure necessary medical services.
