Group Hospital Indemnity Benefit
Back To Employee Benefits
What is hospital indemnity?
Hospital indemnity insurance is a type of plan that pays a set amount – per day, per week, per month, or per visit – if you’re confined in a hospital. The Hospital Cash Plan is a hospital indemnity insurance plan. With the rising cost of health care, one trip to the hospital could cause a serious financial setback ─ given the deductibles, co-pays and out-of-pocket expenses. Group hospital indemnity coverage can help employees manage these unexpected costs, by providing lump-sum benefits for many of the things medical insurance may not cover.
Provide Financial Protection
Group hospital indemnity coverage is a cost-effective way to complement your total benefits offering. Every plan pays a hospital admission benefit from $500 to $5,000, depending on the coverage you choose. You can further enhance coverage with options like special benefits for surgical procedures or days in the hospital ─ even transportation and lodging. And because this coverage is employee-paid, you can provide this benefit at little or no cost to your company.
