There are also benefits not covered usually by Medicare, such as nursing home care and personal care
MEDICARE
Medicare is a federal health insurance program for people of different qualifications Medicare is for those of or over the age of 65, certain younger people with
disabilities, and people with other major conditions The age of Medicare enrollment is very important as most people are not covered
