However, Medicaid is a jointly funded state and federal program for low-income individuals of all ages. Medicaid coverage varies from state to state. Medicare covers mostly hospital visits, prescription fees, doctor’s visits, and preventative checkups. Medicaid primarily covers long-term care costs.
