Health insurance is a type of insurance coverage that provides financial protection against medical expenses incurred by individuals or groups. It is designed to alleviate the financial burden associated with healthcare services, including doctor visits, hospitalization, medication, and surgical procedures. Health insurance aims to ensure access to timely and appropriate medical care while mitigating the risk of high out-of-pocket expenses. It operates on the principle of risk pooling, where individuals pay premiums into a collective fund that is used to cover the medical expenses of policyholders. Characteristics of health insurance include the ability to choose from different coverage options based on individual needs and budgets. Insurance plans may vary in terms of the range of services covered, the network of healthcare providers, and the level of cost-sharing between the insurer and the policyholder. Health insurance typically involves a contractual agreement between the insured and the insurer, specifying the terms and conditions of coverage. Key features of health insurance include the provision of preventive care, which promotes wellness and early detection of health conditions, thereby reducing the need for expensive treatments. Additionally, health insurance offers financial protection against unforeseen medical emergencies and helps individuals access specialized medical treatments and procedures.
