Problem is health insurance policies are not sold that way. There is no health insurance policy that has an annual maximum benefit of $10,000. 

With the exception of one time policies like travel insurance or short term policies most health insurance policies don&#039;t have maximum annual benefits. The maximum is expressed as the lifetime maximum, usually $1,000,000 to $5,000,000 depending upon the company and plan.

For the sake of argument even if you could purchase policies as you describe I don&#039;t see where splitting the risk into 3 levels reduces the total cost. The 3 policies would probably exceed the cost of a single policy because you have the expenses of administration, underwriting and policy issuance times 3 and that&#039;s before any of the companies factor in potential losses.</description>
