Expert Solution

Medicare is health insurance for people 65 and older,people under 65 with certain disabilities,and people of any age with End-Stage-Renal Disease (permanent kidney failure requiring dialysis or a kidney transplant)

There are mainly 4 parts in medicare

PART A and PART B are often called original medicare
PART C is often called Medicare Advantage plans or MA plans

it does not cover cost of blood
it does not cover 24-hour home care,meals or home maker services if they are unrelated to the treatment
it doesnot cover any personal care services such as help with bathing and dressing

Critiques for PART B (Medical Insurance)

Medicare does not usually pay the full cost of the care,and we will be likely be responsible for some portion of the cost-sharing for Medicare-covered services
we have to pay both a monthly premium and a yearly dedutible for Medicare Part B

it may have different plans and it may vary and some plans have annual deductible
