Question

A husband and wife are insured under group health insurance plans at their places of employment. Because their employers pay for their plans, each is covered as a dependent under their spouse's coverage. If the husband is hospitalized, how are the medical expenses likely to be paid?
A) The husband will have to select a plan from which he wants to collect benefits
B) The benefits will be coordinated
C) Neither plan would pay
D) The husband can collect from each plan

Answer 1

Answer:

B)

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that If the husband is hospitalized, then the benefits will be coordinated. Meaning they will most likely be paid to the beneficiary/dependent of the husbands policy because that person would be the one taking care of all the medical expenses that arise as the husband will most likely not be able to. Which in this case is the wife.
