Private shield and Liver Transplant
Insurance agents tell the consumers that the cost of a liver transplant is $100,000 and that it would be covered under a private shield plan.
Before you take the advice of the agent, you should consider the following:
a) What is the chance of needing a liver transplant?
b) Where are you going to find a liver when you need it?
c) What is the total premium that you have to pay for the private shield plan?
Some of the risks, such as the need for a liver transplant, is quite remote. You should not be spending too much money to protect against these risk. The cost of a private shield plan may take away $40,000 over a lifetime. Why pay so much (a certainty) to insure a risk ($100,000) that is quite remote?

There is a mistaken belief that private insurance is more efficient. It is actually more costly to use private insurance to deliver the basic needs that are required by most people.
