âDog tagsâ is the informal term for the identification tags worn by military personnel, because of their resemblance to actual dog tags. The tags are primarily used for the identification of dead and wounded soldiers, and to convey essential basic medical information, such as blood type and history of inoculations, along with religious preference.
Medicare is a federal health insurance program while Medicaid is a federal-state medical assistance program. Medicare is an insurance program that provides medical care to people over 65. Seniors' medical bills are paid from funds which those covered have paid into. People of 65 are covered, regardless of their income...but it is not free.
It is a federal statute. After the introduction of Medicare and Medicaid in 1965, Obamacare represents the most important regulatory overhaul of the healthcare system in the United States. The most significant difference between Obamacare and Medicare is the nature of the plan. Traditional Medicare is merely health insurance that is provided by the government. This means that it is just like other insurance plans that are provided to people to cover their healthcare expenses.
