In this episode you will learn:
- Individual underwriting focuses on a single person's health, while group underwriting assesses the collective risk of the entire group.
- Experience rating for group plans bases premiums on the group's past claims history.
- Community rating for individual plans sets premiums based on geographical area, not personal health.
- Group insurance naturally minimizes adverse selection because the group exists for reasons other than seeking insurance.
- In a group plan, the employer holds the master policy, while the employee receives a certificate of insurance.
