Medicare
Related Programs
Created by Federal law in 1966, Medicare became the backbone
of health insurance for people over age 65. It also includes
those under age 65 who have received Social Security Disability
for at least 24 months, and those with chronic kidney failure,
on dialysis.
In recent years,
rising costs forced the Federal government to reduce many
benefits, and that gave rise to the era of Supplemental Plans,
then Medicare HMOs, and in 2003, with the passage of the Medicare
Modernization Act, and the addition of a Prescription Drug
Plan, Medicare were introduced.
