Do you have to file all your claims to your health insurance?
The answer is probably better phrased as "should" rather than "have to". Most health insurance policies have deductible and copayment provisions. One of the best ways to keep track of your financial responsibility as the insured, and the insurer's financial responsibility, is to file all claims (or to make sure that the health care providers do). The insurer will then process them and issue Explanations of Benefits (EOB), which will show what was paid, what was not paid, and where you stand with regard to meeting deductibles and copayments for the period of time in question.
When insurance company paid the claim in Health insurance?

Does journalism provide health insurance?
It may depending upon whether you are an employee of the publisher or freelance. The job is more likely to offer insurance benefits if you are an employee earning a salary or an houly wage, than if you are a freelancer (for example, paid by the article). If insurance benefits are offered, you must be certain that the entity that is financially responsible for paying claims is a licensed insurer. There have been many well-publicized situations in the past when fake insurers have undertaken to provide health insurance plans. They seem appealing to employers because they tended to be less costly and would insure just about anyone. However, there was no licensed insurer behind the plan, they were scams, and many claims were left unpaid. You can check into the legitimacy of the insurer by contacting the state insurance department where the policy will be issued or where you will enroll.

Who pays for losses by the people who buy insurance?
If what you are asking is who/what pays the losses of claims submitted to an insurer, the answer is, if it is a covered claim, the insurer. The nature of insurance is that in return for a premium (a dollar amount paid periodically), the insurer assumes the risk of loss of certain categories of losses outlined in the policy. There are dollar limits to the amount that the insurer will pay for various categories of losses, but within those limits, and assuming that it is a covered loss, the insurer pays. There may also be deductibles, and for some forms of insurance, copayments (which the insured pays), but overall, the insurer assumes the risk of loss and pays covered claims.
Why would life insurance company ask you to sign something telling them who your plan is with through your employer?
One of the factors that a life insurer is concerned with when issuing a policy is whether the applicant has a pre-existing condition (a condition that existed prior to the application for life insurance). It wishes to know this because, based upon the insurer's underwriting guidelines, it may want to, or have the right to, exclude coverage if death results from that condition. Therefore, the life insurer may want to examine the health insurer's records to determine if (1) answers on the two insurance applications were consistent; and/or (2) the health insurer paid claims for treatment of a condition that was not disclosed on the life insurance application.
Why do insurance companies want to settle on disability claims?
Many insurers wish to settle long term disability claims. This is especially true when the validity of the claim is clear, the likelihood of the insured returning to work is low, and the insured is fairly young. If those factors are met, the insurer could be on the hook for monthly payments pursuant to the disability policy for a long time. The insurer may be inclined to offer a lump sum in order to satisfy all claims to future benefits. Briefly, the insurer calculates what it would end up paying in total were it to pay over the life of the policy, and then reduce that amount to "present value". Present value is a mathematical factor which essentially means that "$X" over a long term is worth something less than that if paid all at once now. The insured is then free to invest what is paid, presumably in an investment that pays at least as much as would be paid periodically by the insurer. The insurer is then able to close its file.
In California Can a provider bill the health care insurer if a person is injured in an auto accident?

What amount that a covered person must pay before benefits are paid by the insurer?
The amount that a covered person must pay before benefits are paid by the insurer is known as the deductible. This is a fixed dollar amount that must be met out-of-pocket by the policyholder before the insurance company starts to cover any eligible expenses. Deductibles can vary based on the type of insurance plan and may differ for individual and family coverage. Once the deductible is satisfied, the insurer typically begins to share costs according to the terms of the policy.
