Don't get too excited, National Health Insurance Company (NHIC) doesn't really cover the whole nation, just 47 states and the District of Columbia. However, in those states, the private company does provide health and life insurance plans. Its products include dental, term life, and preferred provider hospital-surgical policies. Its preferred provider networks are provided by such third parties as MultiPlan. The company focuses on high-deductible catastrophic insurance plans for self-employed and small businesses, a market the firm pioneered in 1975. NHIC was founded in 1923 as William Harvey Life Insurance Company and today is owned by National Health Corporation.
