Medicare covers individuals over 65 years of age and also those less than 65 years of age, provided that they have a well-documented, permanent, and serious disability. Medicaid provides funding for, and access to, health care services for low income and/or indigent families and individuals. Medicare and Medicaid are considered both regulatory and accreditation bodies. Medicare and Medicaid regulate health care facilities receiving these funds, and they also accredit, or approve, health care facilities in terms of their ability to be compliant with established standards, thus making them eligible for this governmental health care funding.
