Final answer:
A fee-for-service plan is the type of plan that will reimburse the insured (or the provider) a payment for each different type of medical service that has been provided.
Step-by-step explanation:
The type of plan that will reimburse the insured (or the provider if the insured assigns the benefits) a payment for each different type of medical service that has been provided is called a fee-for-service plan.
In a fee-for-service health financing system, medical care providers are paid according to the cost of services they provide. This means that for every medical service performed, the insured or the provider (if the insured assigns the benefits) will receive a payment from the insurance company.
For example, if a patient visits a doctor for a regular check-up and then later has an X-ray and blood tests, under a fee-for-service plan, the insurance company would reimburse the insured (or the provider) separately for each of these services.
