COVPTYCovered PartyAn entity, which is the insured, that receives benefits such as healthcare services, reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses, or compensation for losses through coverage under the terms of an insurance policy. The underwriter of that policy is the scoping entity. The covered party receives coverage because of some contractual or other relationship with the holder of that policy. Note that a particular policy may cover several individuals one of whom may be, but need not be, the policy holder. Thus the notion of covered party is a role that is distinct from that of the policy holder.

The policy holder may be required by law to recognize certain associations or may have discretion about the associations. For example, a policy holder may dictate the criteria for the dependent status of adult children who are students, such as requiring full time enrollment, or may recognize domestic partners as dependents. Under certain circumstances, the dependent may be under the indirect authority of a responsible party acting as a surrogate for the subscriber, for example, if the subscriber is differently-abled or deceased, a guardian ad lidem or estate executor may be appointed to assume the subscriber's legal standing in the relationship with the dependent.
