Correct Answer: is important


Solution : The fourth option is the correct choice.

The subject in the sentence is "health insurance", which is singular. The correct verb form to agree with the singular subject is "is". The original verb form "are" does not agree in number with the singular subject, so it is incorrect.

Therefore, the correct sentence should be: Health insurance is important today since anyone can face a medical emergency without warning.
