>>509243006 (OP)Medicaid is for poor able bodied people that can't make enough to pay for their own healthcare.
Medicare is for disabled people or anyone aged 65 and older that can't work.
Medicaid is on the chopping block, not Medicare. BUT, Medicaid finances rural hospitals in areas filled with people unable to afford healthcare, so while Medicare recipients won't lose their healthcare, it's to be seen if anyplace that would accept it will still be around after losing their revenue stream from lack of Medicaid patients.
Basically, if you're on Medicare, don't live in a shithole.
