Voluntary Benefits
Supplemental medical insurance can help cover expenses not included in your primary medical plan, even if you have comprehensive coverage. In case of a critical illness or severe injury, out-of-pocket expenses can quickly add up, and supplemental insurance can provide additional protection.
Accident Insurance
Accident Insurance is designed to provide cash benefits to help you pay for medical expenses that are not covered by your primary medical plan, such as deductibles and coinsurance, as well as everyday living expenses.
Based on your plan, you receive a cash benefit up to a specific amount for:
- Dislocation or fracture
- Initial hospital confinement
- Intensive care
- Ambulance
- Medical expenses
- Outpatient physician’s treatment

- Deductibles
- Prescriptions

- Child care
- And more
