The second policy requires that all covered employees test negative for the HIV virus. The third policy does not cover HIV or AIDS related illness. All insurance policies are priced at their actuerially "fair" value. All individuals are slightly risk averse. An individual with the HIV virus requires $100,000 worth of medical care each year. An individual wihtout the virus on average $500 worth of medical care each year.
