Health Insurance Basics
Besides having to understand what their health care needs are and how
to access providers, people need a way to pay for the health care they
receive. Health insurance is a product that helps to minimize the
financial impact of a person’s medical costs by transferring some of the
risk to the insurance provider. A health insurance plan will yield
several different types of costs that are important for plan
participants to be able differentiate and calculate, such as premiums
and cost sharing. This course will review these cost-related concepts,
as well as introduce additional spending and savings options that can be
used to pay for health care and supplies. The course will also review
several federal laws that protect participants of group health plans and
will explain how people might be charged for certain medical services
that are not covered under the health insurance plan.
