Medicare is the all American health insurance program. It covers folks who are age 65 or older.
There are those folks who do qualify who are under age 65 .
They include people who have disabilities such as permanent kidney failure or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (Lou Gehrig’s disease).
The cost of healthcare is high and so Medicare helps with the cost.
We do know that it doesn't cover all medical expenses or the cost of most long-term care.
The money to finance Medicare comes from (in part) the payroll taxes paid working Americans and their employers.
Some of it's financing comes from monthly premiums deducted from Social Security checks.
