2. Medicaid: A joint federal and state program designed for low-income individuals and families.
3. TRICARE: A healthcare program specifically for active-duty and retired members of the uniformed military services.
4. CHAMPVA: The Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Department of Veterans Affairs, which covers veterans with permanent, total service-connected disabilities and their dependents.
