Supplemental Insurance
Supplemental Insurance Plans
Even with comprehensive health insurance, there can still be gaps in your coverage that leave you vulnerable to significant out-of-pocket expenses. Supplemental insurance is designed to fill these gaps, providing additional financial protection for specific situations such as critical illnesses, accidents, and hospital stays. At Merrimack Health Insurance, we offer a range of supplemental insurance plans that provide extra coverage and peace of mind, ensuring that you’re prepared for life’s unexpected challenges.
Protecting Against Serious Health Events with Critical Illness Insurance
Critical illness insurance provides a lump-sum payment if you’re diagnosed with a serious condition like cancer, heart attack, or stroke. This financial support can be used to cover a wide range of expenses, including medical bills, treatment costs, and even everyday living expenses while you focus on your recovery. Here’s how critical illness insurance can help:
Lump-Sum Payment
Receive a cash benefit upon diagnosis of a covered critical illness.
Flexible Use
The payout can be used for any purpose, whether it’s to pay for medical treatment, cover mortgage payments, or support your family during your recovery.
Peace of Mind
Knowing you have financial support in place allows you to focus on getting better without the added stress of financial concerns.
Critical illness insurance is an essential supplement for anyone looking to protect themselves and their family from the financial impact of serious health events.
Accident Insurance for Unexpected Injuries
Accidents can happen at any time, and the resulting medical expenses can quickly add up. Accident insurance provides coverage for the costs associated with accidental injuries, helping you manage expenses such as emergency room visits, diagnostic tests, and rehabilitation services. Here’s what you can expect from accident insurance:
Coverage for Medical Expenses
Accident insurance helps pay for the medical costs associated with injuries like fractures, burns, or concussions.
Cash Benefits
Receive cash payments that can be used to cover out-of-pocket expenses not covered by your primary health insurance.
Support During Recovery
Use the benefits to help with rehabilitation costs, transportation, and other recovery-related expenses.
Accident insurance is a valuable addition to your insurance portfolio, providing financial protection when life’s unexpected events occur.
Financial Support During Hospital Stays with Hospital Indemnity Insurance
Hospital stays can be costly, even with health insurance. Hospital indemnity insurance provides cash payments for hospital stays, surgeries, and other inpatient services, helping you cover the costs that your health insurance may not fully address. Here’s how hospital indemnity insurance works:
Hospital indemnity insurance ensures that you’re financially supported during hospital stays, providing peace of mind when you need it most.
Cash Payments
Receive a daily or lump-sum benefit for each day you spend in the hospital, or for specific services like surgeries.
Flexible Use
The benefits can be used to cover medical bills, pay for household expenses, or support your family while you’re recovering.
Supplemental Coverage
Hospital indemnity insurance complements your primary health insurance by covering the gaps left by deductibles, copayments, and other out-of-pocket costs.
