Insurance Coverage Cap

Insurance coverage cap specifies the upper limit of the amount covered. The amount the insurance company will pay will be based on the assessed cost of damage or loss, but only up to the coverage cap specified by the policy. You should know the potential cost involved in repairing or replacing any insured policy before signing on to a coverage cap. A lower cap might make the policy cheaper, but it may leave you with unexpected expenses far in excess of that cap.
