Which statement about Medicare is most accurate?

Answer
A
Medicare’s only requirement is being an adult who has paid taxes.
B
Medicare is administered by state governments.
C
Medicare provides free medical care for all enrollees.
D
Medicare provides medical assistance to senior citizens.

Explanation

Medicare is a federal health insurance program that primarily serves people age 65 and older, as well as some younger people with qualifying disabilities. It can involve premiums, deductibles, and other costs, so it does not provide free care to everyone enrolled. Therefore, the most accurate statement is that Medicare provides medical assistance to senior citizens.
