#Insurance is based on modelling #risk and the likelihood that some event is going to occur during, say your travels or occupancy of your home. How does this work with #MedicalInsurance? The chances of you getting ill and dying are 100% and so unless you want to charge exorbitant premiums for those who are already likely to be afflicted (the elderly, the very young, and sufferers of chronic illness) it doesn’t work. And if you do charge extra them extra then you’re a heartless bastard.
