Explanation:

• For the first question: CHAMPVA (Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Veterans Administration) is a program where the Department of Veterans Affairs shares costs of covered health care services and supplies with eligible beneficiaries. CHAMPUS is for military dependents (now replaced by TRICARE), Medicare is a federal health insurance program for people aged 65+, and TRICARE is for military personnel and their families.
• For the second question: The TRICARE catastrophic cap benefit protects beneficiaries from devastating financial loss due to serious illness or long - term treatment by setting limits over which payment is not required. “Calamitous” is not the correct term used in TRICARE terminology for this benefit.
