What is Medicare?

Medicare is a federally funded health insurance program that covers:

People turning 65 and older.
Those with End-Stage Renal Disease, which is kidney failure that requires dialysis or a transplant.
Some people under 65 with certain disabilities.
Beneficiaries must be a U.S. Citizen or legal resident for five continuous years.

Medicare is funded by a branch of the Department of Health and Human Services called The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). CMS also monitors Medicaid programs offered by each state.
