Synonyms for this usage include "health coverage", "health care coverage", and "health benefits".In a more technical sense, the term "health insurance" is used to describe any form of insurance providing protection against the costs of medical services. This usage includes both private insurance programs and social insurance programs such as Medicare, which pools resources and spreads the financial risk associated with major medical expenses across the entire population to protect everyone, as well as social welfare programs like Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program, w

  • 美國醫療保險(英語:Health insurance in the United States)討論的是美國任何可協助支付醫療費用的保險計劃,無論是從私人保險公司購買的保險、或是社會保險,還是由政府資助的社會福利。同義的名詞還有"醫療覆蓋"、"醫療衛生覆蓋"、和"醫療福利"。從更專業的角度講,"醫療保險"這個名詞是用來描述任何形式,可對醫療服務費用提供保障的保險。這種用法包括私人保險計劃,和諸如聯邦醫療保險(Medicare)之類的社會保險計劃,Medicare的功能在匯集資源,並把與醫療費用相關的財務風險分散到整個人群,讓受到覆蓋的人都受到保護,另外還有聯邦醫療補助(Medicaid)和(CHIP)之類的社會福利計劃 ,這兩種計劃均為無力負擔醫療費用的人們提供協助。 除了為醫療費用提供保險之外,"醫療保險"還可指涵蓋殘疾者的()或長期護理(長期照顧保險),或日常生活照顧的保險(custodial care)。不同的醫療保險所提供的財務保護級別不同,承保範圍有很大差異,截至2007年,超過40%的美國受保人表示他們手上的計劃不能充分滿足他們需求。 (zh)
