Primary vs. secondary coverage: What to do when you have two health plans - 1 views

  •  
    According to the Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index as of February 2014, even with the Affordable Care Act, which mandates that practically all Americans have health insurance, 15.9 percent of Americans lack coverage, Axis Capital, a group of companies with branch offices in Bermuda, Australia, Canada, Europe, Latin America, Singapore and the United States and has been also servicing SE countries such as KL Malaysia, Bangkok Thailand, Jakarta Indonesia and many more, Imagine being a person with not just one but then two health plans, may sometimes sound like a fraud. This double coverage can take place in many ways: * An adult child may be covered under a parent's plan, which must be permissible until age 26, and likewise has a job with workplace advantages.  * An employee may take his or her company's health plan and likewise be enrolled under a spouse's plan at the spouse's workplace. * Simply, a scam! Possessing two health plans doesn't mean you get reimbursed twofold instead of one. Warning! There are a few disadvantages to what, on the surface, appears like health insurance heaven: * Double coverage frequently means you're paying for redundant coverage. * You need to make your claim with your "primary" plan first. The additional plan can pick up the tab for whatsoever not covered, but it won't pay something heading the primary plan's deductible.  * If both plans have deductibles, you'll have to fee both before coverage kicks in.
