* Benefits paid health insurance, the maximum limit for each item of treatment and the rest of your limit

* The only exceptions, namely the type of disease or what treatment methods are excluded, eg congenital disorder, cosmetic surgery, the disease that existed before the policy effective (pre-existing disease), etc..

* Claims procedures, including how well the type of document should be completed. If your health insurance company provides partners (providers), you need to know which hospital in your course who are the partners.

2. Learn carefully hospital bills. At the time of leaving the hospital, the hospital will ask you to sign the details of the maintenance costs will be charged to health insurers or to you.

6. When the number of claims rejected a very large, perhaps there are advantages for you to hire a lawyer. Medical and health insurance companies will respond very seriously when you use a lawyer.

You never ill (if it is ill, it is just cold / fever), or
You never affected / accident, or
You have a very very big treasure
If you meet any of the above criteria, then the health insurance program will not be of much use to you.
But in reality, you never know what will happen. Maybe someday you are exposed to chronic disease. Or become victims of traffic accidents. Or failed in business and lose all their possessions, so it can not pay medical expenses (when health is one of the basic human needs).
