		<description><![CDATA[An individual can have two health insurance plans at once, but they probably won&#039;t receive any additional benefits.  The most common time this occurs is when a person is covered with their own employer&#039;s insurance and also covered by their spouse&#039;s policy.  In this case, the insurance with their own employer would considered primary and the spouse&#039;s policy would pay little to nothing.  

Another instance may be a person that retires from the military and gets insurance through their new employer.  The individual would need to speak to the veteran&#039;s affairs office for details on this situation.

The final way a person may have two insurance plans is when they are covered by Medicare and a secondary insurance such as a Medicare Advantage plan.  In this example, Medicare would be the primary insurance and pay approximately 80% of medical costs.  The secondary insurance would then go into effect and cover the remaining 20% according to the rules of the individual policy.]]></description>
