Health care law encompasses the laws and regulations governing hospital and health care administration, and an understanding of health care insurance is integral to it. There are significant differences in the types and amount of coverage provided by various private insurance policies, such as HMOs, PPOs, disability insurance, and hospital indemnity insurance, just as there are important differences in the cost to the purchasers of health insurance. There are also public health care insurance programs. Elderly and disabled persons may be eligible for coverage through the federal Medicare program. The joint state-federal Medicaid program helps certain individuals, including disabled persons and low-income elderly persons, pay for long-term care and in-home health care.
Enderlin is a city in Cass and Ransom counties in the U.S. state of North Dakota. The population was 947 at the 2000 census. Enderlin was founded in 1891. The name is derived from the semi-German "End der Line" ("end of the line"), as the city was once a railroad terminus. Railway shipping remains an important part of the local economy, especially since facilities in nearby towns have closed down. Another important part of the local economy is a sunflower processing plant located several miles east of town.
