Medical insurance is an agreement between you and your insurance company to cover part or all of your medical services/costs. Policies outline various benefits depending on your selected coverage. The following is a list of things your medical insurance may cover.
Prescription drugs
In the case where your doctor recommends medication, medical insurance may step in and pay for prescribed drugs, or at least help cover the costs.
Ambulatory patient services
The cost of an ambulance may strain your wallet. Many medical insurance policies help cover the cost of an ambulance, especially if you are struggling with life-threatening conditions.
Emergency services
Any conditions classified under emergencies rightly qualify for medical insurance.
Extended coverage
Family medical insurance covers may extend coverage to specific family members such as parents, spouses, and children. The more people you include in your coverage, the more you should expect to pay.
Consultation services
When you are looking for answers from a doctor or health care specialist, you will likely be charged a consultation fee. Ask your provider whether your plan covers consultation charges.
Hospitalization
In the event that you are hospitalized for monitoring and medication of a serious disease, insurance typically meets all or part of the expenses. This could include accommodation, meals, laboratory tests, and medical/treatment costs.
Maternity and baby care
During childbirth, both the mother and child require expert care. Even after delivery, both the mother and child will require medical attention and care. Health insurance should help to cover these costs.
