Hospital Indemnity Insurance

Hospital stay? Get cash paid directly to you.

Even with Medicare or health insurance, deductibles and copays add up fast. A hospital indemnity plan pays you a fixed dollar amount (for example, $450 per day) to help cover the bill.

Why hospital indemnity coverage?

  • A fixed dollar amount per day (for example, $450 per day) when you're admitted, paid directly to you to help cover the bill.
  • Use the money for anything: medical bills, rent, groceries, travel or lost income.
  • Pairs well with Medicare Advantage and high-deductible health plans to help cover out-of-pocket costs.
  • Affordable options with benefit levels you choose to fit your budget.
  • Paid in addition to any other coverage you have.

Who is it for?

People on Medicare Advantage plans with daily hospital copays, families with high-deductible health plans, self-employed folks and anyone who wants a cash cushion if an unexpected hospital stay happens.
