Charting Medicare: Who, What, and How Much
November's
Visualizing Health Policy, JAMA's monthly infographic series created by the Kaiser Family
Foundation (KFF), takes a look at Medicare: who is covered by the program; what
proportion of Medicare beneficiaries use at least 1 medical service in a year;
how health care spending per person is growing more slowly for Medicare than
for private insurance; and how rising health care costs and a growing
population pose fiscal challenges to keeping Medicare solvent in the years
ahead.

infographics are available on KFF's website.
