Answer #1

In 1965, Congress passed the legislation and President Lyndon Johnson signed America's first health insurance program Medicaid on 30th July. Medicaid serves the poor people of low-income group, families, elderly adults, pregnant women, children, and disabilities. In 1966, it covered about 4 million people and now it almost covers 70 million people and spends about nearly $566 billion. It covers the services of outpatient and inpatient services, Laboratory services, physician services, and home services. Optional benefits cover the services of drugs and some form of therapies.
