Created in 1965, Medicare is the federal health insurance program for people living with disabilities or people who are 65 or older. There are four different parts of Medicare, each of which covers specific services. Parts and A and B are more commonly known as fee-for-service or traditional Medicare, and provide direct government benefits. Parts C and D provide coverage through private plans approved by Medicare.
CAHC created this resource to explain the differences between the different parts of Medicare and how Part D, specifically, works.
