Insurance is a contract where you pay premiums to an insurance company, and in return, the company agrees to cover certain financial losses or damages as specified in your policy. This provides financial protection against unexpected events.

Insurance works by pooling risks among policyholders. You pay a premium to the insurer, and in return, the insurer agrees to cover specific losses or damages as outlined in the policy.

You pay monthly premiums for health insurance. When you visit the doctor, the insurer covers part of the cost according to the terms of your policy.

Understand your policy terms and conditions. Ask your broker to explain any confusing clauses or coverage details.
