English Language Questions asked in IBPS Clerk Prelims 8th Dec 2018 : Shift 1

• Reading Comprehension Questions Asked in IBPS Clerk Prelims Shift 1 (8th December 2018)
• Direction (1-8): Read the passage carefully and answer the following questions.
  
  
  Typical insurance company costs include designing insurance products to suit customer needs; actuarial input to assess and manage risk; advertising and marketing; empanelment (of approved service providers such as hospitals); administrative expenses to provide prior approval of claims; and processing, which includes functions such as fraud detection.
  However, of these, the first three are not applicable to programmes such as Ayushman Bharat which will be fully funded by the government as a blanket scheme. The government is also funding more than 80% of crop insurance. The last three functions, i.e. empanelling service providers, pre-approving hospitalisation of patients and subsequently settling the claim, are commonly outsourced to third-party administrators (TPAs) even by insurance companies.
  No insurance company has the kind of financial resources the Centre and the States have. Hence, governments must consider bearing the risk by themselves — known as the “trust mode” — instead of using insurance companies as risk-bearers and intermediaries. However, in India, governments continue to pay hefty sums in premium to insurance companies.
  This phenomenon was researched in 2015 by Srikant Nagulapalli and Sudarsana Rao Rokkam of the Andhra Pradesh University. Studying the Aarogyasri scheme introduced in undivided Andhra Pradesh by the late Congress Chief Minister, Y.S. Rajasekhar Reddy (the forerunner of the RSBY), they showed that the bid by insurance companies on such health schemes included a 20% margin for administrative expense and profit. By avoiding insurance companies and using TPAs
  instead, governments can save about 15%, or up to ₹6,000 crore per year. These savings will continue to rise due to rising premiums. Additionally, since premiums paid to insurance companies are transferred at the beginning of the year, there is an opportunity cost, which at current interest rates could amount to around ₹2,000 crore a year. The study also found the claim-to-premium ratio and customer satisfaction to be better in the trust mode than the insurance mode. It would also prevent exorbitant profits accruing to insurance companies in good cropping seasons as in 2017-18.
  Those who recommend the use of insurance companies allude that the government lacks the expertise to manage insurance. While the “government has no business being in business” is the neoliberal mantra, insurance companies are a redundant layer in the government’s social security structure. The government has already proclaimed that it wishes to cut the intermediary through the JAM trinity (Jan Dhan-Aadhaar-Mobile) and direct benefit transfers. It has also indicated that it wants to optimize fund utilization through the recently introduced Public Finance Management System. Shifting to the trust mode will be the next natural step in this path, not only saving taxpayer money but also benefiting farmers and the underprivileged instead of insurance companies.
  1) Which of the following combination of the costs is applicable to third party administrators?
  1. Designing insurance products to suit customer needs.
  2. Empanelling service providers.
  iii. Pre-approving hospitalisation of patients.
  1. Actuarial input to assess and manage risk.
  2. a) i and ii
  3. b) ii and iii
  4. c) i and iii
  5. d) i and iv
  6. e) ii and iv
  2) Writer has emphasized on the delivery of social security schemes by the government instead of insurance companies. Which of the following facts support writer’s idea?
  1. insurance companies themselves outsource some of the work to third party, if government use TPAs instead, it can save about 15% per year.
  2. As the social security schemes like ayushman bharat are fully funded by the government, so government should take care of it completely.
  iii. The claim ­to­ premium ratio and customer satisfaction to be better in the trust mode than the insurance mode.
  1. a) All except i
  2. b) ii and iii
  3. c) All except ii
  4. d) All are true
  5. e) None of these
  3) As per the passage, which among the following is the earliest introduced social security scheme?
  1. a) Pradhanmantri fasal bima yojana
  2. b) Ayushman Bharat
  3. c) Aarogyasri scheme
  4. d) JAM trinity
  5. e) Rashtriya swasthya bima yojana
  4) Which of the following is the prime focus of the above passage?
  1. a) The insurance companies should not consider social security scheme as a profit-earning tool
  2. b) Seeing the exorbitant return in insurance sector government must initiate its own public sector insurance company and make the market more competitive
  3. c) Government pays high premium to insurance companies, which outsource some of its areas to third party administrator. So distributing these schemes by itself, through trust mode, government can save a huge amount yearly
  4. d) Government should cut the intermediary through the JAM trinity
  5. e) None of these
  5) There is a phrase “government has no business being in business” used in the passage. What can be illustrated from the phrase?
  1. a) Public sector companies are not much profitable
  2. b) Government do not have its own insurance company due to lack of business understanding
