Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) provides healthcare coverage to uninsured children and teens whose families do not qualify for Medicaid, but cannot afford private insurance. Silas's family has a modest income, so he may be eligible for CHIP coverage. TRICARE is a health insurance program for military personnel and their families, so it is unlikely that Silas would be covered by it. The Family Social Security Plan and the Family Wellness Scheme are hypothetical programs and do not exist in reality. Medicare is a federally funded health insurance program for people aged 65 and older or those with certain disabilities, so Silas would not be eligible for it.
