What is an example of a result of an entitlement program?
In general, an entitlement program is funded by general revenue and requires that every eligible applicant must receive services; i.e., applicants cannot be turned away for budgetary reasons. (Of course, the program can be terminated.) Medicaid is an entitlement program. Medicare is not an entitlement because it's funded by payroll taxes, not general revenue; it's an insurance program. Public housing is not an entitlement because there's no obligation to provide services to every eligible applicant. An entitlement in the fiscal sense is any financial obligation or benefit due from the government under contract or legislation. This can include government pensions, social security, unemployment coverage, and other payments provided by law. The term is sometimes used in a narrower context to exclude pensions and other "earned" benefits. As such, it would refer to "unearned" benefits such as welfare, student grants, subsidies, housing, guaranteed medical care, or community development funds, where they are provided under government programs.
What is employee entitlement?
An "entitlement program" is generally one for which an individual qualifies simply by virtue of his or her circumstances. For example, the Social Security law has several components, some of which are "entitlements" and some are not. The largest program, SS Retirement is NOT an entitlement as an individual qualifies for it only by virtue of having paid into the program at least forty quarters; Supplemental Security Income and Social Security Disabilities ARE entitlements because an individual is entitled to SSI simply by having a very low income and to SSD after being disabled for at least six months. Similarly, the largest portion of Medicare--health insurance of seniors--is NOT an "entitlement" as one qualifies by paying into the system and paying premiums. Medicaid and Temporary Assistance to Needy Families, on the other hand, ARE entitlements as qualification depends on a set of circumstances in which an individual may find himself. Unemployment Compensation is an insurance program paid by employers (and employees, who can elect to supplement UC)and is NOT an entitlement

Are Social Security retirement benefits the only Entitlement Program benefits where individuals and their employers directly contribute money for that sole purpose?
I think the answer is no. The reason I say I think that is because that's not quite exactly how Social Security really works, and if that statement is true of Social Security it's probably also true of, say, unemployment insurance and in some states state disability insurance.
