About a quarter of Gen Z adults can define deductible, copay: Survey

[Duaine]

Among Gen Z adults, 27% can correctly identify the term "deductible," and 29% can define "copay," according to a new survey from the National Association of Insurance Commissioners.

The survey was conducted online from June 24 to June 26 with 1,003 U.S. adults ages 18 to 27.

Thirty-six percent of respondents said they could define "out of pocket," while only 19% said they could define "out of network." The survey also found that 14% have little or no awareness about the importance of health insurance.

Among the respondents, 54% said they feel "overwhelmed or anxious" at "the thought of dealing with insurance," and 28% said they were "going to try to wait as long as possible" to get their own health insurance. Sixty-one percent of respondents said they already pay for their own health insurance.

The Gen Z's are the ones who demonstrate against all of the EVIL insurance companies, want FREE healthcare and when they get cancer or have a brain injury from falling off their skateboards call us wanting a policy and can't understand why they can't get coverage when it's not Open Enrollment or have no income to get an ACA plan.

Definitely not just Gen Z that want Universal HealthCare

This article is indeed pointless. It did, however, enable Duaine to get out another one of his AI photos that he loves to plug.

A survey of the entire adult population of the US is likely to find that US consumers are equally (or worse) clueless about insurance.
