Health Insurance

Unlike other developed countries, the United States does not
have a universal health coverage system. Today, every
American must purchase their health insurance, and most
Americans get coverage through their employers. A good
portion of the population, however, search directly private
companies that offer different health insurance plans.
The members of these private plans, and regular payments,
sometimes also have to pay part of the cost of their treatment
before the insurer reimburses all or part their medical expenses.
The type of service, as well as the amount reimbursed, varies
according to plan.
 
In 2004, almost 46 million Americans had no health insurance.

of the most basic health insurance increases continuously.

take most health insurance expenses, but even so policyholders
