Which program provides medical assistance for people with low income and disabilities?

• A. Medicare
• B. Dignity
• C. Hospice
• D. Medicaid

Answer: (D)

Medicaid provides medical assistance to people with low income and, in many cases, to people with disabilities. It’s a joint federal‑state program designed to help those with limited resources access a broad range of health services, with eligibility and covered benefits that can vary by state. Medicare, while it covers many people with disabilities, mainly serves those aged 65 and older or certain younger people with specific disabilities, and isn’t determined by income in the same way. Dignity isn’t a recognized government health program, and Hospice refers to end-of-life care services rather than a broad medical coverage program.
