What is a health insurance Beneficiary?

A recipient of benefits is known as a beneficiary. A health plan beneficiary is someone who receives benefits from a health plan they are a member of, such as a group health plan, individual health insurance plan, Medicare Advantage, Original Medicare, Medicare Supplement, stand-alone prescription drug coverage, or Medicaid.

In health insurance, a beneficiary is a person who is entitled to receive benefits under an insurance policy. The beneficiary is typically named by the policyholder and may be a spouse, child, or other dependent.

In the context of health insurance, a beneficiary may be entitled to receive benefits such as coverage for medical expenses, prescription drugs, preventive care, and other healthcare services covered by the insurance policy. The beneficiary may be responsible for paying premiums or other costs associated with the policy, depending on the terms of the policy and the specific insurance plan.

The beneficiary is an important component of health insurance coverage; they may or may not be the person who ultimately receives the benefits of the policy in the event of a covered medical expense or other healthcare need.
