My personal view on the subject

Private health insurance is very expensive and some 44 million American do not have proper health insurance coverage. When they become ill or sick or have an emergency illness, they are not covered and makes the US look like a third world country. This is why many Americans now are asking for a Public health insurance option in the current proposed Health care reform bill. But then again there are many people too in the US who doesn’t want huge government that will control and manage  a behemoth corporation. Where do you stand guys and gals?

Private Health Insurance Coverage

Private health insurance is simply insurance coverage provided by insurance policy providers not run by the government. More specifically, it refers to the policy provider as a corporation that does not receive subsidy from the government for its activities. A private insurance company is just like any other business, in this respect. It gives more access to private hospitals which may be better than the state-run. It also gives the policy holder more choices in doctors. This article will give you an overview of the kind of coverage a private health insurance offers.

The premium

The premium is the amount you have to pay every month for the policy provider to keep your account active. This amount entitles you to the benefits of your policy. These can vary in size, depending on the results of your screening, the size of your initial payment to the insurance company, and other factors.

The deductible

The deductible is the initial amount you are required to pay in case of hospitalization before your policy coverage sets in. Occasionally, this is designated as a dollar amount, but can be designated by a particular number of days in the hospital as well. Usually, this kind of policy requires that you be confined in a particular hospital. If your policy has a $1,000 deductible, that means you must pay $1,000 in medical expenses before the coverage takes effect.

The relationship of the deductible to the premium is simple: the lower the premium, the higher the deductible, and vice-versa. For example, it is entirely possible for a policy to provide you two differing policies: one that may have a $10 premium with a $1,000 deductible, and another policy with a $30 premium and a $500 deductible. At this point, you must decide for yourself which policy will be more advantageous for you.
