What Are The Populations Covered By The Medicare Medicaid And Social Security?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    There is  a proportionate share of the disability population is covered by all three. Generally you are allowed to keep private insurance and medicare. Medicare pays up to 80 percent of medical bills and your private carrier pays the 20 percent. Unfortunately, there are some disabilities that private insurance will not cover.   Hence End Stage Renal Failure or end stage kidney disease. This is where medicaid or buyin medicaid covers the 20 percent. If a person does not qualify for medicare due to not having enough points then medicaid covers the entire or majority of medical expenses. So the populations can range from any age disabled under kidney failure, total blindness, severe learning disabled  to retirement age persons that qualify for medicare. Hope it helps somewhat.
