If the amount is given as ownership in exchange for not having health insurance, then it is permissible to take it, provided that you bear your own treatment expenses. However, if the company appoints you as an agent to subscribe to insurance, then you must subscribe to a cooperative insurance company that adheres to Sharia regulations.
