Sample Summary of Benefits and Coverage: What this Plan Covers & What it Costs

March 6, 2012

This is kind of like a nutrition facts label you would find on the side of a cereal box, except applicable to health insurance coverage. All insurance companies are required to include this summary as a requirement of the Affordable Care Act.
