What is the difference between Medicare and Medicaid?
Medicaid is an assistance program. It serves low-income people of various ages. Medical bills are paid from federal, state and local tax funds. Patients usually pay no part of the costs or very little for covered medical expenses, although a small co-payment is sometimes required. Medicaid is a federal-state program. It is run by state and local governments within federal guidelines, so it varies from state to state.

Los pacientes suelen pagar poco o nada por los gastos médicos cubiertos, aunque a veces se exige un pequeño copago. Medicaid es un programa federal-estatal. Lo gestionan los gobiernos estatales y locales dentro de las directrices federales, por lo que varía de un estado a otro.
