Supplemental insurance provides additional coverage to help manage out-of-pocket expenses not covered by your primary health insurance. These expenses can include co-pays, deductibles, and lost income due to illness or injury.
Types of Supplemental Insurance
- Accident Insurance: Covers medical and non-medical expenses following an accident.
- Critical Illness Insurance: Provides financial support upon diagnosis of serious illnesses like cancer or heart disease.
- Hospital Indemnity Insurance: Pays for hospital stays, helping with room charges and other hospital-related expenses.
- Short-Term Disability Insurance: Offers income replacement if you cannot work due to a temporary disability.
Benefits of Supplemental Insurance
- Direct Payments: Many plans pay you directly, allowing flexibility in managing expenses.
- Wellness Incentives: Some policies include payouts for annual wellness visits, encouraging proactive health management.
- Employer-Sponsored Plans: Many employers offer supplemental coverage through payroll deductions, making it easier to afford additional protection.
Why Supplemental Insurance is Essential
