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. |
