Question
which people qualify for medicare benefits?
o u.s. citizens who are under 18
o individuals who have worked longer than 3 years and have paid taxes
o disabled adults who are over 18 and have no means of support
o individuals who are 65 and older
Medicare is a federal health insurance program in the United States. The main eligibility criteria include being 65 years or older (regardless of income or medical history). While there are some exceptions (like certain disabled individuals under 65), the most straightforward and common qualifying group is those 65 and older. U.S. citizens under 18 would typically be covered by Medicaid or parental insurance. Working for over 3 years and paying taxes is more related to Social Security (which is related to Medicare eligibility in some ways but not the sole qualifier). Disabled adults over 18 with no means of support might qualify for Medicaid (a different program) rather than Medicare.
