On February 17, 2009, most television stations will switch from analog to digital broadcasting meaning that anyone who watches/hears TV using a set that has “rabbit ears” antennas must either buy a new digital TV, pay for TV (cable, satellite, or phone company), or get a converter box. To learn how to make the switch, go to: http://www.aapd.com/AAPDRedesign/TTPI/d ... tion.html.

( 2.9 / 72 )Updated Primers On the Medicaid and Medicare Programs
As the incoming Administration and Congress begin setting priorities for health legislation, the Foundation has updated two primers that explain the role of Medicaid and Medicare in providing health coverage to more than 90 million Americans. Medicaid: A Primer provides an overview of the basic components of the nation’s largest health coverage program, which covers 59 million low-income individuals, including children and families, people with disabilities and the elderly who are also covered by Medicare. Medicaid is also the dominant source of the country’s long-term care financing. Medicare: A Primer explains key elements of the program that now provides health coverage to 45 million people – including nearly 38 million people age 65 and older and another 7 million younger adults with permanent disabilities. The Medicaid Primer is available at http://www.kff.org/medicaid/7334-02.cfm. The Medicare Primer is available at http://www.kff. org/medicare/ 7615.cfm.
Prepared by Foundation staff, the two resources are part of a series that also includes primers on the uninsured, health care costs, and how private health insurance works. The series is available online at http://www.kff.org/medicaid/kcmu100208pkg.cfm
