What type of coverage protects against loss due to theft of property?

The correct choice is theft coverage because this specific type of insurance is designed to provide financial protection against the loss of property due to theft. It covers the insured's possessions that may be stolen from their premises, whether it's a home, business, or other insured locations. Theft coverage can often be included in a homeowners policy or purchased as a separate endorsement, allowing policyholders to recover the value of their stolen items, given that the theft falls within the terms outlined in the policy.

General liability coverage, on the other hand, focuses on protecting against claims of bodily injury or property damage to others rather than the insured’s own losses. Property damage coverage is typically relevant to damage caused to physical assets rather than theft, and health coverage pertains specifically to medical expenses and services, which is unrelated to property theft. Thus, theft coverage is the only option that directly addresses protection against loss due to theft of property.
