Rising Costs Require Layers of Protection
The average cost for a hospital stay is $2,346 per day1
Get More Protection
If you have a medical plan, you may also have a high deductible to pay be-fore your coverage begins paying. Hospital Indemnity (HI) works with Critical Illness (CI) and Accident (AI) insurance plans to offer a cost-efficient way for you to fill in more of the financial gaps.
Here’s How It Works
When you elect HI coverage with CI and AI, you maximize the protection you receive at the time of a covered illness or injury. There are no offsets and no restrictions on how the benefit amounts paid to you can be used, which means you can use the cash to cover those high deductibles – and any other costs as well.
Here Is How They Integrate
In the event of a covered illness or injury, HI, CI and AI could each pro-vide you with separate lump-sum cash benefits, helping to fill those finan-cial gaps and easing the impact of unexpected medical costs for you and your family.
of Americans with medical insurance used all their savings for out-of-pocket medical costs.2
A Compliment To Medical Insurance
When it comes to paying for medical care, your medical insurance plan plays a very important part, but there are also expenses associated with illness or injury that you will still be expected to cover. The cash benefits provided by HI, CI and AI are independent from any claims or coverage provided by medical insurance. This cash can be used to help cover the bills or added expenses that your medical plan may not cover, like co-pays, deductibles or any other living expenses.
