Two health care policies are-FEHB and CHIP

FEHB( Federal Employees Health Benefit Plan)- Its provide the medical benefits to the full time federal employess. Active service employees, retired employees and their dependents are covered under this plan.Government cover 72 % of weighted average premium of all plans but will not exceed 75% of the premium for any one plan. This is very old plan that is launched in 1960 by federal government.

CHIP(Children's Health Insurance Program)-Its provide health benefits to the children of the very low income group families who do not afford the premium for medical insurance.Every state follow and implemention of this health plan according to his requirement.

But the health care expenses are very high compare to other develop nations and a lagre number of US citzen do not afford this expenses. So, government has to need of increase the depth of plan and also should control the health expenses. A big part of US population are going to old and they are not prepare for their health expenses.There are lot of disease like, stress, cancer, corona, hearth desease etc became the part of lives in the USA these days.
