Medicare is a Federal health insurance program for seniors and other individuals with certain medical conditions and disabilities.  It is often confused with Medicaid, a Federal-State health insurance program for people with limited resources. 

Medicare was created to help pay medical bills and was started in 1965 and run by CMS.  There are 4 parts to Medicare: Part A – Hospital Insurance; Part B – Medical Insurance; Part C – Medicare Advantage plans; and Part D – Prescription Drug Coverage.   There are 2 types of Medicare coverages: Medicare Advantage plans which are generally HMO networks; and Medicare Supplement plans, all of which are nation-wide PPO plans.
