The Value Of Health And Car Insurance

By Mike Goldberg


Most activities in life have an outcome that may not be accurately determined. In this case the uncertainty may also be associated to some kind of risk. As such the higher the chances of the risk occurring the greater the need to observe care during the process. Generally an insurance process enables the financial obligations or compensation from such a risk to be transferred to a service provider.

This process which is typically a risk management one is provided and available to the client at a stipulated fee. Generally this procedure is initiated between the parties involved to transfer liability. This is common practice in the car and health insurance where the compensation requirements in each category can be met by a service provider. This is in relation to the typical risks in each of the categories.

For the automobile cover a number of risks will be considered. Such risks are like those related to the damage from accidents and vehicle repair. Other times a cover scheme is also available for theft of the vehicle. In such an agreement the service provider is obliged to compensate the client the equal value of the vehicle that has been stolen.

Normally the general process involves the insured entity entering a contract with the insurer who is the service provider in this case. This policy enumerates the conditions and circumstances that will warrant a financial compensation by the service provider. This process is governed by a number of principles that must be identified for the process to be actualized.

Basing on this process it can be concluded that different risks have varying cover rates. Such is the case with the automobile industry. Providers within this industry have car insurance quotes online to help clients to know how much they need to pay. This is generally a query process that picks guest data and looks up data from the motor vehicle department and other state agencies in order to derive a rate for the client.

The principles that govern the cover scheme process remain similar. However when comparing the automobile and health processes there is a slight difference in that for the latter a contract is established between the provider and client. The client in such a case is normally an individual or their sponsor or employer. Accompanying this agreement is a policy that highlights the particular areas that are covered in the agreement.

Within such an agreement the person to be covered has several requirements. A premium is one such requirement indicating the amount that must be paid for the cover. This payment can be accomplished using various approaches. This may include deduction coinsurance or co-payment. Apart from the approach used the policy will also highlight such matters like capitation. This is where the provider enters agreement with a healthcare provider to provide umbrella services for its members. This is what is commonly practiced under the national health scheme.

The insurance process benefits the client and service provider in varied ways. For the client they can have a peace of mind because liability for the risk is transferred to a different party giving them a peace of mind. On the other hand the service provider has a steady capital source from the premiums by the customer. In this way the provider can be able in a sustainable business
