There is no ceiling on how much this could be worth - type in traffic or informational site potential.
 
There is a ceiling, its called 5 figures, low to mid.

How would I know this, well recently a VERY similar name Medicaid.com sold privately for what is rumored to be low 6 figs, IF.

Therefore assuming the dot com is 6 figs the .net would be 5, low to mid. My guess is low unless you can show very good traffic.

If natural type in traffic ONLY is strong XXX a day at least you could see 10's of thousands, maybe $40k++++ if much lower and XX a day, Id guess anywhere from $10k-$20k max.

Also if the current traffic is due to an old business/site and links etc it would take a very unsavy buyer to not realize the numbers will continue to drop.

So assuming you paid anywhere from $5k+ for the name, you did well, if you ventured into 5 figs you rolled the dice on natural traffic.

Tell me how close my estimation is :)

Aren't terms like Medicare and Medicaid only allowed to be owned and used by the government and never by private individuals ? Especially if there's an intent by domainers like us to sell the domain or monetize it. Irrespective of whether a TM exists on them or not. I've always wondered if the government botheres trademarking all they produce, own, name, etc The same analogy goes for Social Security, and even for programs created by the government like No Child Left Behind (or Cash for Clunkers.... lol) Or the alphabet soup of GSEs and branches of federal/state departments like the NIH, CDC, ATF, etc - any full name or acronym of an entity/program/legislation created for governement purposes.....

"Medicare" is fair game. Many companies deal in medicare related services such as medicare advantage, medicare supplemental insurance, etc.
The are allowed to advertise their services using the term medicare.
