Under what program may the retired military or the dependents or active military personnel receive care

  1. Medicaid

  2. Medicare

  3. CHAMPUS

  4. Private insurance

The correct answer is: CHAMPUS

CHAMPUS stands for Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Uniformed Services. This program is specifically for retired military, dependents, and active military personnel to receive healthcare. Option A (Medicaid) is a government funded health insurance program for low-income individuals and families, so it does not apply to retired or active military. Option B (Medicare) is a federal health insurance program for individuals over 65 years old or with certain disabilities, so it also does not apply to this group. Option D (Private insurance) is a type of health insurance that individuals must purchase themselves, which is typically not available to retired or active military personnel as they have access to CHAMPUS.
