Abstract
Almost accidentally, Medicaid, a program originally designed to help low-income single mothers and their children, has become the nation's primary way of paying for nursing home care. Medicare and Medicaid: A Reference Handbook provides an in-depth discussion of these two large government health insurance programs. It additionally addresses such related issues as health care, government spending, and socialized medicine.
