What services are generally NOT covered by GCI plans?

The choice identifying cosmetic surgery, experimental treatments, and non-medically necessary procedures as generally not covered by GCI plans is correct because these types of services do not align with the fundamental aims of health insurance, which is to cover necessary medical care. Cosmetic surgery is performed primarily for aesthetic purposes and is typically considered elective, while experimental treatments may not have proven effectiveness or safety. Similarly, non-medically necessary procedures do not typically qualify for coverage under standard health insurance plans, as they do not address essential health needs.

In contrast, emergency services and hospital care, maternity care and pediatric services, as well as preventive services and mental health treatment, are typically covered by GCI plans, as they are deemed essential for maintaining public health and providing necessary medical attention to individuals and families. This reflects the insurance model of covering necessary healthcare services while often excluding those that are not essential or medically justified.
