Medicare vs. Medicaid (70 points)

You have the option of creating a graphic or writing a 2- to 4-page paper that identifies the key elements of Medicare and Medicaid. Your assignment, regardless of the option you choose, must include:

• A description of the program itself, including the differences between Medicare Part A, Part B, Part C, and Part D
• Medicare Advantage versus the original Medicare plan
• Eligibility
• Medigap
• Differences between participating and non-participating providers
• Excluded services
• Requirements for submitting claims
• Coding issues that are specific to Medicare billing and coding.

Ensure your assignment (in either option) is detailed, cites two scholarly journals in addition to the textbook, and follows CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA Requirements, which includes creating a title and reference pages. The CSU-Global Library is a great place to find sources for your assignment!
