Beschreibung

The pamphlet is in very good plus to near fine condition. Slight discoloration to the bottom edge. The pamphlet is clean minus the circling of the date on the rear flap in blue ink. Quite possibly the first document outlining the benefits and eligibility requirements of Medicare for American citizens. Rare, with no other copies currently available for sale. In 2010, Medicare provided health insurance to 48 million Americans-40 million people age 65 and older and eight million younger people with disabilities. Medicare serves a large population of old, sick, and low-income people, many of whom would be unable to afford health care otherwise. On average, Medicare covers about half (48 percent) of health care costs for enrollees. Medicare enrollees must cover the rest of the cost. These out-of-pocket costs vary depending on the amount of health care a Medicare enrollee needs. They might include uncovered services-such as long-term, dental, hearing, and vision care-and supplemental insurance.-Wikipedia Please view the many other rare titles available for purchase at our store.
