This post is more for researchers, and people interested in research in this area. A summary of what this team did:

Health insurance literacy (HIL) is the knowledge, ability, and confidence to find and understand health insurance information, and choose, purchase and use an insurance plan. Despite the increasing volume of research on HIL, the approaches to this field remain fragmented.

This review paper aims to develop a conceptual framework delineating the attributes, personal contexts, and environmental influences, which either influence or are influenced by an individual's HIL level.
