Is it possible to take out an insurance policy which will refund costs

I have seen this discussed in a few forums but none of the links to seem

Thanks for any help.

I wouldn't have thought it would be easy to get for two main reasons:

So far, it doesn't seem to be easy to get.

1. the insured would be able to ensure he gets a payout

Isn't that true of almost any insurance? *E.g. I could insure my
house/car then set fire to it? *Anyway I wouldn't be able to profit from
the payout since it would only cover costs.

You wouldn't receive a payout if you set fire to your own house.
