No. A crown is a restorative and cosmetic treatment using a replacement material, so it falls outside health insurance coverage. However, any treatment of the underlying condition beforehand - root canal treatment of the tooth to be crowned, for example - may be covered.
Not in every case. The dentist assesses how much tooth structure remains and where the tooth sits: some teeth only need a filling, while others are better protected with a crown so they do not fracture during chewing.
That depends on the material, how the work is carried out and how well each person cleans and looks after them. The dentist will discuss this with you and explain how to care for the crown.
