. Employment-based health insurance is provided by companies as an employee benefit package to their employees. Almost all the major employers in the US offer group health insurance to their employees. Medicare and Medicaid are the main public health insurance programs.

Medicare offers health insurance coverage to the elderly and also to several million disabled people under the age of 65 since both groups have relatively higher expense for healthcare.
