Medicare is a multi-part federal health insurance program managed by the federal government. A
person applies for Medicare through the Social Security Administration, but Medicare's rules are

where most residents have their bills paid by the government through the Medicaid program. For
millions of others, that care comes from family members or paid providers, in homes or assisted living

Payday loans are small cash advances, usually of $500 or less. To get a loan, a borrower gives a payday lender a postdated personal check or an authorization for automatic withdrawal from the borrower’s bank account. In return, he receives cash, minus the lender's fees. For example, with a $300 payday loan, a consumer might pay $45 in fees and get $255 in cash.
Payday lenders are not the only option for consumers facing debt problems.There are many alternatives to payday loans such as: small savings accounts or rainy-day funds; salary advances from employers; credit card advances; working out extended repayment plans with creditors; and loans from friends, relatives, religious institutions, or social service agencies. In addition, many lenders have developed lower-cost alternatives to payday loans that have better repayment terms.
