Abstract
Besides affecting the health status of the individual, illnesses also adversely affect the economic situation of the individual. In this sense, the temporary incapacity to work caused by the illness prevents the person from working and therefore making income from the professional activity and causes the person to make expenses such as medicine, doctor and hospital expenses. In this respect, illness insurance aims to eliminate the negativities through health and money aids to provide protection against disease risk.
