   Medicare is a government entitlement program adminsered by the federal government. Medicaid is a State entitlement program adminstered by the State. In most cases Medicaid is secondary to Medicare. Medicaid is "means tested" where Medicare is age based at age 65 or "disabled" for 24 months and drawing social security in order to qualify for Medicare
