It’s easy to ignore family health insurance until a family member falls ill and hospital bills and medical expenses pile up. It’s true that we can never bet on our health; an emergency can occur at any time. Therefore, the wise thing to do is buy health insurance before you know you will need it. Once you decide to join a plan, many questions arise. These can be about the schemes, the type of coverage, the repayment options, and of course doubts regarding the reimbursements.

The term ‘health insurance’ is very broad, encompassing a wide range of insurance types, starting from covering the hospital bills to providing the disabled with long-term care. There are ‘comprehensive’ or ‘major medical’ schemes that companies give employees that cover most of the medical expenses. Other policies include the ‘fee-for-service’ and ‘managed care’ plans.

These policies cover most medical and hospital expenses, but differ in certain aspects. The ‘fee-for-service’ insurance schemes allow you to visit any doctor you wish and the medical practitioner will be paid for the services. The hospital or doctor will submit the bill to the insurance company, and the insurance company will reimburse you the actual cost. Remember, reimbursements are only for covered medical expenses. The reimbursements are not total but cover about 80% of the expenses; you have to bear the remaining 20%. This amount you pay is called the ‘co-insurance.’ If the doctor charges more than the standard you have to pay the difference. ‘Deductible’ is another term an insurance seeker has to know. The deductible is an amount that the policyholder has to pay before the insurance company starts to reimburse. If you pay a higher deductible you will get a lower premium.

Naturally, questions range from benefits to how much you have to pay. Still, it is better to ask certain questions for your own peace of mind. These questions are basically about the percentage of costs covered and what benefits you will get. The choice of course is another factor; whether you can choose your primary care physician, or require a referral to the specialist. Now comes the money factor involving how much you can pay for the monthly premium, the deductibles and the co-insurance costs.

Selecting the right health plan depends upon your purchasing power and the type of insurance you need. If you want to pay less for consultations, hospital visits and medical bills, you have to opt for a higher-premium plan. Health plans also differ with the way you wish to consult a practitioner: some limit you to a specific practitioner while others allow you to visit any doctor you want.

The other plans are the affordable ones, which include the fee-for-service, HMOs, PPOs and POS. In the fee-for-service plan you have to pay the medical practitioner a fee for the consultation or the medical service he provides you.
