Demystifying Health Insurance

Healthcare in the United States can get pretty expensive. That’s why you need health insurance, to pay off any medical bills you accrue due to illness or injury. It may seem confusing with all the legal mumbo-jumbo, but really it isn’t. What you really need to understand is that under the Affordable Care Act, there is a set of ten categories of services that health insurance plans must cover.
