Health insurance

insurance that covers the whole or a part of the risk of a person incurring medical and healthcare expenses

Health insurance is a form of insurance which pays for medical care. Exactly what such plans cover varies. There's bare bones insurance policies that don't pay for much more than emergency lifesaving treatments, and at the opposite side of the scale are plans that include everything except for elective procedures like plastic surgery.
