Insuranceopedia Explains Assessment Plan

Assessment plans can be used for life insurance and property insurance products. With these kinds of plans, the insured pays the insurer a premium up front. However, if the risk increases the cost of the loss exceeds the amount of the premium paid, the insurer will require an additional premium payment to make up for this.
