Overview

Hospital admissions can occur for many reasons, and even with comprehensive medical coverage you may still face other out-of-pocket costs. Supplemental hospital insurance provides an extra layer of financial protection by offering cash benefits that can help cover hospital stays, inpatient services, and related expenses—reducing financial strain so you can focus on recovery.

Financial Protection

Get more financial protection with Supplemental Hospital Insurance

We offer a Supplemental Hospital Insurance plan to complement your medical plan coverage. A hospital stay can happen unexpectedly and have costly impacts. Hospital Insurance provides extra financial protection for you and your loved ones, so you can focus on recovery. With Hospital Insurance:

  • You or your covered dependents will get a benefit paid directly after a covered hospitalization for an injury or illness. There is also extra coverage for hospitalization for baby deliveries.
  • You can use the money received at your discretion. It’s commonly used to help cover medical expenses, childcare costs, or help around the house.
  • Plus, an annual $50 (per adult) preventive care benefit is available once you or your covered dependents complete an annual physical.

There are two plan options to choose from: High and Low. You will pay the full cost of the premium for this benefit. Benefits aren’t reduced because you receive a payment from any other coverage you have, such as medical.
