Medicaid
Help us manage health care for the elderly.
The best effects of the program in the country
-The stability of insurance coverage afforded by Medicare may be the source of the health benefit suggesting that universal coverage at other ages may have similar health effects.
-Medicare helps the relatively healthy 65 year olds
-We find that Medicare increases the probability of the previously uninsured having excellent or very good health
-has no discernable effects at lower health levels.
