Health-Insurance: What to look for in good Health Insurance

Health insurance is a kind of protection that provides payment of
benefits for covered sickness or injury. Included in health
insurance are various types of insurance such as accident insurance,
disability income insurance, medical expense insurance, and
accidental death and dismemberment insurance.

Before sign the health insurance policy make sure that you have read
thoroughly the benefit’s section. Take note of any health care
service that is not covered by your health insurance policy. Also,
pay specific attention to how the health insurance policy is worded.
Sometimes, health insurance companies hide the health insurance
coverage exclusions within the definitions of words.

For instance, a health insurance company may define the term
‘emergency’ as anything that is life threatening condition that
cannot be reasonably treated by a primary care physician. Whereas,
your definition of ‘emergency’ may be anything that requires quick
medical attention.
