What is Indemnity Insurance?
Indemnity insurance also referred to as “fee-for-service” plans or “fixed-benefit insurance,” allow you to choose the doctor, healthcare professional, hospital or service provider of your choice and allow the highest amount of flexibility and freedom in a health insurance plan.
How is it Different to a Major Medical Insurance Plan? Let’s take a quick look:
With a traditional major medical health insurance plan, you pay first, and then your insurance company covers the rest. Usually, after you meet your deductible, reach a certain amount of out-of-pocket costs, or pay a copay.
Indemnity insurance flips how you are paid when compared to major medical insurance. The plan offers limited benefits and is meant to supplement a more traditional health insurance plan. You’re paid a predetermined amount for certain health care expenses you have incurred, after which, you are on your own to pay for the rest.
