People who become disabled from an illness or injury are generally elibible for SSD or SSI depending upon their individual circumstances. When a person qualifies for Social Security Disability benefits they can usually receive early Medicare and/or Medicaid. Visit the Social Security Administration website or call 1-800-772-1213 for information about qualification requirements and the application procedure. Please be advised there is a waiting period after the application has been submitted. For job related injury or illness the person should also contact the Workman's Compensation Insurance provider for his place of employment. http://www.ssa.gov Note that the waiting period for Medicare for disabled people is 2 YEARS...for for that period the disabled are on their own as far as medical care goes
