Understanding Medicare: Eligibility and Coverage in the U.S.
Medicare, launched in 1966, is a vital health insurance program managed by the U.S. government, providing coverage for seniors, disabled individuals, and those with specific medical conditions. It comprises various parts for hospital, outpatient, prescription drug, and private plan options, helping millions manage healthcare costs. Understanding eligibility criteria and plan specifics is essential to maximizing benefits and ensuring appropriate coverage. Despite extensive support, out-of-pocket costs and coverage limitations mean beneficiaries should carefully explore available options to find suitable plans that meet their healthcare needs and budget.
