Hi.  Here are a couple websites with lots of information on the
Medicare Modernization Act passed last year and now being implemented.
 They offer summaries, fact sheets, issue briefs, white papers:

Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services
www.cms.hhs.gov/medicarereform

Kaiser Foundation
www.kff.org/medicare/index.cfm

In addition, if you are looking for particular political points of
view, you could start here:

The Heritage Foundation (conservative)
www.heritage.org/research/healthcare/medicare.cfm

Families USA (liberal)
www.familiesusa.org/site/PageServer?pagename=Medicare_Index

There are many more sites with information, depending on what you need.  

In your question, you also mentioned Medicaid.  Medicaid is a
completely different program.  For a good fact sheet on Medicaid, go
to: http://www.kff.org/medicaid/2004-04.cfm

I hope this helps.
