This policy seems to have many restrictions and maximums. Makes me wonder what else is restricted in the fine print. This might be OK depending upon what you need and what the premium is for the policy compared to other major medical plans. You should contact a local agent that works with all of the major companies in your area. The agent can work with you to find the best plan for your situation and budget. They can answer all of your questions and can explain what you get and, more importantly, what you don't get with the policy. There is no extra charge using an agent.
