Discussion: Eligibility for Government sponsored Healthcare Plans
Medicare and Medicaid are government sponsored healthcare plans that are available for the elderly and other designated populations. Medicare and Medicaid healthcare plans provide comprehensive benefits but there are limitations to the coverage and in the case of Medicare, the benefits do not cover the entire cost for the healthcare services. From the information you learned in this module, select two criteria for either Medicare or Medicaid eligibility, one that you agree with and one that you do not agree with and explain why.
