Accidents change everything. They can endanger your family, alter your way of life, and often damage your investments. Get back on track.
Did you know that accident insurance coverage can help supplement costs that are not covered under your existing medical plan? This insurance provides you with funds that can be used as you see fit.1 This can help with out-of-pocket expenses like deductibles, copays, medical transportation, childcare, and more.

Yes, you can use your benefit payment as you see fit. Use it to help cover your household bills, medical insurance deductibles, copayments, and more.

Accidents can happen any time, to anyone, when you least expect them — and they can be costly. Even quality medical plans can leave you with extra expenses to pay. Costs like plan deductibles, copays for doctor visits, and extra costs for out-of-network care can add up fast. Having the financial support you may need when the time comes can mean less worry for you and your family.
