FICA, or the Federal Insurance Contributions Act, consists of two main components: Social Security tax and Medicare tax. The Social Security tax funds retirement, disability, and survivorship benefits, while the Medicare tax finances healthcare for individuals aged 65 and older. Both taxes are deducted from employees' wages, with employers also contributing an equal amount.
