Insurance is for unexpected events. Paying for expected events using insurance is not a worthwhile thing to do because you must pay for the cost of care plus the cost of running the insurance company, which is more expensive than just paying for the cost of care. So, if someone is worried about running out of money due to foreseeable medical expenses, buying insurance to cover those foreseeable medical expenses will cause him or her to run out of money earlier.
