Explanation

Medicare provides health coverage mainly for people age 65 and older, so A is accurate. It is a federal program associated with Social Security, not a program administered and regulated by state governments, and it does not make all care free; enrollees may pay premiums, deductibles, and other costs. As the number of older Americans grows, Medicare faces increased costs and funding pressures, making E accurate too.
