A medical assistant program for people who have low income, as well as for people with disabilities.

• A. Medicaid
• B. Medicare
• C. Dignity
• D. Hospice

Answer: (A)

Medicaid is the program designed to help people with low income and people with disabilities. It’s a joint federal‑state health coverage program, with eligibility based on income and disability status and rules that can vary by state. It typically covers a broad range of services, including doctor visits, hospital care, and often long‑term care. Medicare, by contrast, mainly serves people 65 and older or certain younger people with disabilities, regardless of income. Dignity isn’t a health insurance program, and hospice refers to end-of-life care rather than a payer. So the description points to Medicaid.
