Policy protection amounts

Coverages is the plural of coverage, referring to multiple types or instances of protection, reporting, or scope.

The word appears most often in insurance contexts, where different coverages address different risks: Review your auto policy to understand what coverages you have.

It also applies to journalism: The network's election coverages varied in depth.
