While I applaud your effort to educate people about these programs, it would be good to make sure you don't distribue erroneous information. Medicaid is a Federal/State funded program that is run by each state using their own rules that comform to federal guidelines. It covers much more in some States than in others. To make the generality that it covers more than Medicare is just wrong. (I have worked with the Medicare and Medicaid programs in andministrative positions for over 30 years.)Just thought I'd offer that comment for your consideration.
