Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A 70 year old patient with diabetes would qualify for Medicare coverage. Medicare is a federally-funded program designed for patients over the age of 65 years, and those under age 65 who are disabled or have kidney disease. Since alopecia, hypertension, and fibromyalgia would not be considered qualified disabilities or kidney disease, the patients under the age of 65 years would not qualify for Medicare coverage.
