Morphology
The meaning 'a person who has insurance coverage' is directly and transparently derived from the adjective 'insured' (having insurance) combined with 'person' (a human individual). This straightforward adjective + noun composition is a common, compositional pattern found across languages, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
Insured person gives a simple picture: a person standing under an umbrella marked insured, so they are 'covered' by the policy. That's why an insured person means someone the insurance will protect or pay if something goes wrong.
