Insurance Basics: Home
We often rely on our doctors to tell us what care we need. But to get the best care, you and your doctor should make decisions together. This process is called “shared decision making”.
A disability is a health issue that limits what you can do. There are public and private sources of benefits for children, adults and veterans with disabilities, and their caregivers.
Healthcare proxies and advance healthcare directives can help you plan your care if you ever lose the ability to communicate clearly.
High-deductible health plans (HDHPs) have lower premiums than traditional health coverage
Your health insurance ID card is your proof of insurance. You use it when you visit the doctor, hospital or other provider.
After you visit a provider, you may get a bill telling you how much you have to pay.
