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.
Bethel is a village in Clermont County, Ohio, United States. The population was 2,637 at the 2000 census. Bethel was founded in 1798 by Obed Denham, in what was then the Northwest Territory. The village has been dry since the repeal of Prohibition. But recently through use of the single precinct vote system, precincts A and C can now sell (but not serve) alcohol. Business must first be put onto the ballot and voted into permitation. Bethel is the home of the first movie theater in Ohio which was founded by Aaron Little in 1908. It is home to the StarLite Drive-In, one of the few remaining drive-in theatres in the United States.
