What is supplemental health insurance?

Health insurance goes a long way toward paying your medical expenses. Plus, it’s now required by law. However, even if you have a health insurance policy, you can still face out-of-pocket expenses like deductibles, co-pays and treatment. Supplemental health insurance can reduce that burden. Supplemental health insurance is not meant to replace primary health insurance. But, it can help pay some medical expenses once your primary policy has paid. These policies help cover expenses like the following:

• Outpatient services and hospital stays
• Critical illnesses and emergencies
• Private rooms and private duty nurses
• Deductibles and co-pays
• Unexpected childcare

Hospital Indemnity 

Hospital Indemnity insurance, also called Hospitalization insurance or Hospital insurance, is a plan that pays you benefits when you are confined to a hospital, whether for planned or unplanned reasons, or for other medical services, depending on the policy.

Critical Illness

Critical Illness insurance, also known as Critical Care insurance, Critical Illness or catastrophic illness insurance coverage, pays a lump sum cash benefit directly to the you in the event of a qualifying serious illness.  Having a Critical Illness policy in place can help reduce the financial burden and lead to less stress during recovery. 

Primary health insurance helps cover medical costs if you get sick, but it doesn’t cover everyday living expenses while you’re out of work. The plans vary by state.  With these plans you choose a Maximum Lifetime Benefit and the benefits pay upon the first diagnosis of a qualifying illness at least 30 days after the plan becomes effective.  Generally, you receive a non-taxable cash benefits in a lump sum benefit.

Critical Illness policies pays for:

• Heart attack
• Stroke
• Life-Threatening Cancer
• Loss of Hearing
• Loss of Speech
• Loss of Vision
• Major Transplant
• Paralysis
• Coma
• Renal Failure
• Carcinoma in Situ
• Coronary Artery Bypass Graft

If you have health insurance with a high deductible, have limited savings or live in a single household income, a critical illness policy may be beneficial to you and your family.  The premiums for these plans are relatively low and you can use the cash for things that your health insurance typically does not cover such as daily living expenses, transportation.

Accident Insurance

Accident insurance, also known as supplemental accident insurance or personal accident insurance, can help with those unanticipated medical costs that come with an accidental injury.  The plan designs and availability vary by state. Accident insurance plans pay benefits for a number of common accidents, inpatient and outpatient services, and select surgical services. Accident insurance can cover:

• Burns
• Broken bones
• Concussions
• Dislocations
• Comas
• Outpatient Services
• Ambulance – emergency
• Diagnostic testing
• Physical therapy
• Urgent care center
• Inpatient Services
• Intensive care unit (ICU)
