Questions and instructions

Question pretext
I would like to ask you some questions about health insurance. When we say someone is "covered by health insurance", we mean that he or she is enrolled with an
organization that pays for health care costs if he or she gets sick or injured.
Literal question
Is this person covered by any mandatory health insurance plans?
