ANSWER:
This is absolutely not permissible if taken voluntarily.
Medical insurance or any kind of insurance is haram if taken by your own self because it involves two major sins: gambling and riba.
If the insurance is compulsory by the government or if your company is offering it to you then there’s no problem in utilizing it as the sin is not on you.
