Download free Definitions Of Health Insurance Terms pdf. In February 2002, the Federal Government’s Interdepartmental Committee on Employment-based Health Insurance Surveys approved the following set of definitions for use in Federal surveys collecting employer-based health insurance data. The BLS National Compensation Survey currently uses these definitions in its data collection procedures and publications. These definitions will be periodically reviewed and updated by the Committee.

ASO (Administrative Services Only) – An arrangement in which an employer hires a third party to deliver administrative services to the employer such as claims processing and billing; the employer bears the risk for claims.

• This is common in self-insured health care plans.

Coinsurance - A form of medical cost sharing in a health insurance plan that requires an insured person to pay a stated percentage of medical expenses after the deductible amount, if any, was paid.

• Once any deductible amount and coinsurance are paid, the insurer is responsible for the rest of the reimbursement for covered benefits up to allowed charges: the individual could also be responsible for any charges in excess of what the insurer determines to be “usual, customary and reasonable”.
• Coinsurance rates may differ if services are received from an approved provider (i.e., a provider with whom the insurer has a contract or an agreement specifying payment levels and other contract requirements) or if received by providers not on the approved list.
• In addition to overall coinsurance rates, rates may also differ for different types of services.

Copayment - A form of medical cost sharing in a health insurance plan that requires an insured person to pay a fixed dollar amount when a medical service is received. The insurer is responsible for the rest of the reimbursement.

• There may be separate copayments for different services.
• Some plans require that a deductible first be met for some specific services before a copayment applies.

Deductible - A fixed dollar amount during the benefit period - usually a year - that an insured person pays before the insurer starts to make payments for covered medical services. Plans may have both per individual and family deductibles.

• Some plans may have separate deductibles for specific services. For example, a plan may have a hospitalization deductible per admission.
• Deductibles may differ if services are received from an approved provider or if received from providers not on the approved list.

Rising health care costs have made it very expensive to be injured or ill. If you do not have good medical insurance to help pay the bills, a serious injury or illness can create major financial problems. Having no coverage, too little coverage, or the wrong kind of coverage can be a costly mistake.

Many types of health insurance are available at various prices. Some policies pay most of your health care bills for any serious injury or illness. Others pay only some of your bills or only for certain injuries or illnesses. Some policies pay an amount directly related to your actual health care
costs. Others pay a specific amount for each day that you are in a hospital, without regard to your actual bills.

There are some optional insurance coverages you may wish to consider. State law does not require that these coverages be purchased. Your no-fault insurance does not pay for repairs to your car if it is damaged in an accident. If your car is properly parked and hit by another car, the other driver's insurance will pay for your repairs.

Except for this situation, the only kinds of auto insurance that pay for repairs to your car are collision and comprehensive coverage. Several of the examples in the guide include these optional coverages.
