Cheap Health Insurance Plan - A Simple Way To Save Money
By: Greg Haehl iSnare Expert Author
Is there such a thing as cheap health insurance? It hardly seems possible when
you look at the rise in hospital costs and physician services. Insurance
companies have the task of underwriting the medical risk for insurance. The
insurer then issues and delivers the policy to the insured once they are
accepted into the plan. The policyholders then receive the policy declaration
pages that list all of the benefits and features.
What are those benefits and features? How do they work after a hospital stay?
When you begin to find the answers to those questions then you begin to
understand what makes up the total premium. When you receive your first benefit
statement after a hospital stay then you will begin to understand how the
deductible is applied and how the coinsurance works.
Simple claims analysis
1. Total inpatient expense for 4 days in the hospital including physician
services amounts to $4000.
2. Your policy has a $500 deductible with an 80/20 coinsurance clause with a
maximum out of pocket $2000.
3. You must pay the first $500 for your stay leaving a balance of $3500.
4. You will pay 20% of that $3500 or $700 and the insurance company will pay
$2800.
When your 20% reaches $2000 then the insurance company pays 100% of the
remaining costs up to a million dollars (or 2 million etc).
The health insurance buying trends indicate that people are purchasing health
insurance with higher deductibles. Deductibles bring down the premium
dramatically. There are some plans with deductibles as high as $5000. This is
called self-insuring because in essence that is what you are doing for the
deductible amount.
Health Savings Accounts are also starting to become very popular. These savings
accounts are tax deductible. They are like medical IRA’S. Contact your tax
advisor or accountant for more details.
