Medical - Insurance
English term or phrase: coverage
underwriting/coverage/insurance/benefits

If omitted history is found which would have changed the original underwriting decision, the health plan may offer retroactive enrollment in an alternative level plan or rescind your coverage. If the health plan rescinds your coverage, you may be eligible for future coverage under the California Major Risk Insurance Program.

Can we all translate "underwriting " and "coverage" as ”承保“?

underwriting/coverage/insurance/benefits
These words are very difficult to deal with. Usually ”underwriting" is translated as "承保“, "Coverage" has different versions of "理賠范圍,保險范圍、承保范圍、給付項目” even sometimes simply "保險" or “給付”, so it is easily confused with "insurance" and "benefits"; while for "benefits", some company goes with "利益" or "福利”, some goes "給付” or "賠付“ while others strongly disagree and insist with "利益”/"福利"。

Any suggestions for a consistent translation? Thanks for your advise!!

sorry, insurance benefit should be 給付 or 賠付. Forgot that this is about insurance.

The policy holder buys the insurance to hedge against the future perceived losses by paying a regular amount to he insurance company known as the Premium. Insurance companies ensure financial reimbursement of the insured losses to the policy holders or his/her beneficiary. This is the most coveted Insurance Benefits.

覆盖


Explanation:
This is the term used for coverage under any scheme where 'coverage' is required by members participating in any insurance scheme, including life insurance, pension insurance and other forms of social insurance. It can be further explicated as 覆盖范围。 Surety comes from my extensive experience in insurance in China.
