Why Were Medicare And Medicaid Created?
- 63333 POINTSview profilePeggy MaceMost of the U.S.Medicare was created to help pay for health costs for the aged population, because at that time, people over 65 were having a very difficult time finding health insurance. Medicaid was created to assist very low income people (especially children) with medical expenses. Both were signed into law in 1965.Answered on August 4, 2014flag this answer
