Medicaid is qualified for by having a low income primarily, and Medicare is for those aged 65 and older and for those who are disabled. The programs have many similarities and differences, mainly regarding providers that accept either program and fees associated with care. Medicaid is typically free insurance that pays for rehab, while Medicare has co-pays, deductibles, and daily fees for hospitalizations such as an inpatient rehab stay.
