Health Insurance Shock: Why You Still Pay Big Even With Coverage!

  • Despite high coverage, policyholders often pay significant amounts due to overlooked terms.
  • Room rent limits are a major factor; exceeding the limit leads to proportional deductions on other expenses.
  • Sub-limits for specific treatments or illnesses mean only a capped amount is covered, regardless of overall policy value.
  • Consumables like gloves, masks, and certain injections are often excluded from coverage.
  • Insurance companies have package rates with hospitals; patients pay the difference if the bill exceeds this rate.

Why It Matters: Understand health insurance policy terms and sub-limits to avoid unexpected out-of-pocket expenses.
