Health insurance may be required by law.

Some places have laws that require people to have health insurance. The correct option reflects this reality by stating that health insurance may be required by law, meaning it’s a possible obligation—not universal, but mandated in certain jurisdictions or times. This matters in cost controls because legal requirements can drive how benefits are funded, what employees must contribute, and how budgeting for health coverage is planned. The other statements are too absolute: health insurance isn’t never mandatory, because mandates exist in some contexts; it doesn’t have to be bought only from the company, since plans can be employer-provided, privately purchased, or funded through government programs; and it isn’t always provided by the employee because employers or governments can offer or subsidize coverage.
