πŸ“– About This Skill

name: Health Insurance slug: health-insurance version: 1.0.0 homepage: https://clawic.com/skills/health-insurance description: Compare health insurance plans, estimate total yearly costs, and choose coverage that fits medical usage, prescriptions, and financial risk. changelog: Initial release with plan comparison workflows, annual cost modeling, enrollment timing guidance, and local memory for recurring insurance decisions. metadata: {"clawdbot":{"emoji":"πŸ₯","requires":{"bins":[]},"os":["linux","darwin","win32"]}}

Setup

On first use, read setup.md for integration guidelines and memory initialization.

When to Use

User needs help choosing, comparing, or renewing health insurance coverage. Agent evaluates medical usage patterns, estimates yearly costs across plan types, and recommends a plan strategy with clear trade-offs.

Architecture

Memory lives in ~/health-insurance/. See memory-template.md for structure.

~/health-insurance/
β”œβ”€β”€ memory.md         # Status, profile, preferences, active decisions
β”œβ”€β”€ comparisons/      # Plan comparisons and scenario snapshots
β”œβ”€β”€ renewals/         # Renewal timelines and action logs
└── notes/            # Follow-up questions and pending documents

| Topic | File | |-------|------| | Setup process | setup.md | | Memory template | memory-template.md | | Coverage framework | coverage-framework.md | | Annual cost modeling | cost-model.md | | Comparison checklist | comparison-checklist.md | | Enrollment and renewal playbook | enrollment-playbook.md |

Core Rules

1. Lock Decision Context First

Before comparing plans, clarify:
  • Coverage target: individual, couple, or family
  • Source: employer plan, public marketplace, private broker, or government program
  • Geography and provider access requirements
  • Hard constraints: budget ceiling, medication continuity, renewal deadline

    • 2. Build a Real Utilization Profile

    Estimate expected care load before discussing premiums:
  • Routine care frequency (primary care, specialist, urgent care)
  • Ongoing prescriptions and refill cadence
  • Known procedures, therapies, or recurring diagnostics
  • Worst-case risk profile for unexpected events

    • 3. Compare Plan Mechanics Before Price

    Always evaluate these mechanics before deciding on monthly premium:
  • Network fit for current clinicians and facilities
  • Deductible, out-of-pocket max, and coinsurance structure
  • Copay design by care type (primary, specialist, urgent, emergency)
  • Referral and prior-authorization friction for expected treatments
  • Prescription formulary coverage for required medications

    • 4. Model Yearly Cost With Scenarios

    Use cost-model.md to calculate low, expected, and high-use annual totals. Include premium, deductible exposure, copays, coinsurance, and non-covered risk. Recommend using expected-cost and downside-risk together, not premium alone.

    5. Protect Against Coverage Failure Modes

    Run a risk check before final recommendation:
  • Out-of-network emergency and balance-billing exposure
  • Drug tier surprises and step-therapy limitations
  • Referral bottlenecks that delay care
  • High deductible plans that look cheap but shift excessive risk

    • 6. Execute Enrollment With Evidence

    Use enrollment-playbook.md to define exact actions, deadlines, and proof artifacts. Store plan IDs, effective dates, and support contacts for appeal or billing disputes. Never claim enrollment is complete without confirmation evidence.

    7. Persist Data Only With Explicit Approval

    Before writing to ~/health-insurance/memory.md, ask for explicit confirmation. Store only durable insurance context the user wants remembered for future decisions.

    Common Traps

  • Choosing by monthly premium only -> hidden total annual cost becomes unaffordable.
  • Ignoring provider network fit -> forced provider changes and unexpected out-of-network bills.
  • Skipping formulary checks -> medication cost spikes after enrollment.
  • Assuming all PPO or HMO plans behave similarly -> referral and authorization surprises.
  • Treating deductible and out-of-pocket max as equivalent -> underestimating downside risk.
  • Missing enrollment deadlines -> delayed coverage or locked plan options.

    • External Endpoints

    This skill makes NO external network requests.

    | Endpoint | Data Sent | Purpose | |----------|-----------|---------| | None | None | N/A |

    No data is sent externally.

    Security & Privacy

    Data that leaves your machine:

  • Nothing. This skill is instruction-only and local by default.

    • Data stored locally:

  • Insurance profile and comparison context explicitly approved by the user.
  • Stored in ~/health-insurance/memory.md.

    • This skill does NOT:

  • Access insurer or broker APIs automatically.
  • Submit enrollment forms or claims without user direction.
  • Read files outside ~/health-insurance/ for storage.
  • Write memory without explicit user confirmation.
  • Modify its own core instructions or auxiliary files.

    • Trust

    This is an instruction-only skill focused on structured health insurance decisions. No credentials are required and no external service access is needed.
