Supplemental Insurance
If you are diagnosed with a serious illness or are involved in an accident,
traditional health insurance and programs such as Medicare and Workers'
Compensation may not pay for all the services you need. Are you prepared
financially? Supplemental insurance helps fill the gaps left by other insurance
plans and can help protect your own financial security as well as your
family's.
You may not think you will be affected by a serious illness or accident, but
consider these statistics:
-
Cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death.1
-
Cancer will occur in one out of every two men and one out of every three women.2
-
More than 23 million unintentional disabling injuries occurred in 2004.3
Here's the good news: With advances in various medical treatments, you have a
better chance of survival. Supplemental insurance can help you pay for that
treatment as well as related expenses. Perhaps most important of all, it can
offer you peace of mind in your time of crisis.
