Except it really isn't health insurance either. It is more like


health care prepayment.

"Insurance" is when you pay someone else to assume the risk of catastrophic loss. So you file an auto claim if you get in a wreck, not when you need to replace the windshield wipers.

But health insurance is nothing of the sort. It isn't paying someone else to assume risk for you, it is paying someone else to pay your bills for you.
