Описание: In the modernWestern world, we tend to be insured by the state or for-profit insurers. Wehave privileged this system over mutual or micro-insurance, whose long and richhistory we tend to forget. Yet, mutual and micro-insurance is becomingincreasingly important, both in the Western and in the non-Western world andbears re-examination.This book tracesthe track record of mutual insurance from 1550 to the present, examiningprovisions for burial, sickness, unemployment, old age, and widowhood. Theauthor seeks to address such topics as the type of risks micro-insurancecovered between 1550 and 2015; how it was organized throughout its history; whoprovided the coverage; and how contributions, benefit levels, and conditionshave changed.Importantly, theauthor explores why this system has worked through, and endured, the test oftime. Mutual insurance can, for instance, overcome classic insurance problemssuch as adverse selection and moral hazards. The author demonstrates that thestudy of the position micro-insurance historically assumed in mixed economiesof welfare presents interesting lessons for today’s insurance market, as wellas for today’s mutualism.

Описание: This informative volume synthesizes the literatures on health economics, risk management, and health services into a concise guide to the financial and social basics of health insurance with an eye to its wide-scale upgrade. Its scope takes in concepts of health capital, strengths and limitations of insurance models, the effectiveness of coverage and services, and the roles of healthcare providers and government agencies in the equation. Coverage surveys the current state of group and public policies, most notably the effects of the Affordable Care Act on insurers and consumers and the current interest in universal coverage and single-payer plans. Throughout, the author provides systemic reasons to explain why today’s health insurance fails so many consumers, concluding with reality-based recommendations for making insurance more valuable to both today’s market and consumer well-being.Included among the topics: ·Defining health insurance and healthcare finance.·Consuming and investing in health.·The scope of health insurance and its constraints.·Matching health insurance supply and demand.·The role of government in health insurance.·Ongoing challenges and the future of health insurance.Bringing a needed degree of objectivity to often highly subjective material, What Is Health Insurance (Good) For? is a call to reform to be read by health insurance researchers (including risk management insurance and health services research), professionals, practitioners, and policymakers.

Описание: This book adopts an international perspective to examine how the online sale of insurance challenges the insurance regulation and the insurance contract, with a focus on insurance sales, consumer protection, cyber risks and privacy, as well as dispute resolution. Today insurers, policyholders, intermediaries and regulators interact in an increasingly online world with profound implications for what has up to now been a traditionally operating industry. While the growing threats to consumer and business data from cyber attacks constitute major sources of risk for insurers, at the same time cyber insurance has become the fastest growing commercial insurance product in many jurisdictions.Scholars and practitioners from Europe, the United States and Asia review these topics from the viewpoints of insurers, policyholders and insurance intermediaries. In some cases, existing insurance regulations appear readily adaptable to the online world, such as prohibitions on deceptive marketing of insurance products and unfair commercial practices, which can be applied to advertising through social media, such as Facebook and Twitter, as well as to traditional written material. In other areas, current regulatory and business practices are proving to be inadequate to the task and new ones are emerging. For example, the insurance industry and insurance supervisors are exploring how to review, utilize, profit from and regulate the explosive growth of data mining and predictive analytics (“big data”), which threaten long-standing privacy protection and insurance risk classification laws.This book’s ambitious international scope matches its topics. The online insurance market is cross-territorial and cross-jurisdictional with insurers often operating internationally and as part of larger financial-services holding companies. The authors’ exploration of these issues from the vantage points of some of the world’s largest insurance markets – the U.S., Europe and Japan – provides a comparative framework, which is necessary for the understanding of online insurance.
