The document discusses the different types of health insurance in the United States. The majority (49%) have private insurance through their employer, while 13% have Medicare, 18% have Medicaid, and 11% are uninsured. Medicare covers those over 65 and is run by the federal government, while Medicaid provides coverage for low-income families and is administered by each state. Private insurance through an employer is most common but may not cover all conditions, and individual plans are increasingly expensive, contributing to the number of uninsured.

2. * Majority people in USA (49%) have private health insurance
–the most usual through the employer- 13% is covered by
Medicare and 18% by Medicaid. 11% (50 millions people)
have not any health insurance.

3. * There are several kinds of public health
insurance. The most important are Medicare
and Medicaid.

4. * Medicare covers people over 65 years old and the
US federal government is single payer.
* This health insurance doesn’t cover preventive
medicine or some services like oculists or dentists.

5. * Medicaid is dedicated to low income families. This
health insurance is managed by each state. So there
are 51 different Medicaid programmes.

6. *The most usual is the
private health insurance
through an employer. For
example if you work for a
company, the company
pays your health
insurance. The problem is
maybe this health
insurance could not cover
all kinds of diseases.

7. * But you can get an
health insurance by
yourself (especially if you
have precarious jobs).
This kind of health
insurance is more and
more expensive. Last
years they increased by
87%. This explains why
there are a lot of people
without any kind of
health insurance.
