Health insurance is a type of insurance coverage that pays for medical, surgical, and sometimes dental expenses incurred by the insured. It functions by sharing risk among a large pool of individuals, allowing insurers to estimate overall health system expenses and establish routine financial structures like premiums or payroll taxes. Depending on the region, health insurance can be provided through private commercial entities, social insurance programs, or public welfare systems.
