Based on coverage type, the healthcare insurance market is categorized into lifetime and term coverages. Out of these, in 2018, the term coverage category contributed a revenue of $1.3 trillion and is expected to be the faster-growing category, advancing at a CAGR of 4.7% in the analysis period.

Among these, medical insurance is projected to be largest as well as the fastest-growing division, progressing at a CAGR of 4.8% in the near future. This is attributed to the large network of paneled hospitals, providing medical services. Medical insurance is a health policy that covers specific expense amounts, such as for hospital beds, emergency medical services, and ambulatory patient services. Thus, the increasing demand for medical insurance is predicted to lead to the growth of the healthcare insurance market.
