Medical Benefit Structure

Meaning

Medical Benefit Structure refers to the defined organizational framework of a health plan that specifies the scope of covered non-pharmaceutical healthcare services, including physician consultations, diagnostic laboratory testing, surgical procedures, and therapeutic interventions. This structure clearly outlines the patient’s financial responsibility for each service, setting the rules for deductibles, copayments, and coinsurance. It is the backbone of the plan’s clinical coverage.
