Medicaid, a federal program that is jointly funded by federal and state governments, covers low-income people who cannot afford medical care. Each state administers its own Medicaid program, determining the program's qualifications and benefits under broad federal guidelines.

TRICARE, a Department of Defense program, covers medical expenses for active-duty members of the uniformed services and their spouses, children, and other dependents; retired military personnel and their dependents; and family members of deceased active-duty personnel. (This program replaced CHAMPUS, the Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Uniformed Services, in 1998.)

CHAMPVA, the Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Department of Veterans Affairs, covers the spouses and dependents of veterans with permanent service-related disabilities. It also covers surviving spouses and dependent children of veterans who died from service-related disabilities.

If you cause a car accident, the bodily injury liability portion of your car insurance coverage helps pay for the other party's medical expenses. Likewise, if another driver is at fault for an accident that injures you, their auto liability coverage may help pay for your medical bills.
