Peace of mind when life takes an unexpected turn.
A hospital stay can bring more than just health concerns—it often brings unexpected bills that your main insurance doesn’t fully cover. The stress of recovery shouldn’t be compounded by the stress of how to pay for it all.
Hospital Indemnity Insurance provides cash benefits directly to you when you’re hospitalized. Whether your stay is planned or sudden, this extra layer of protection helps cover out-of-pocket costs like deductibles, copays, or even everyday expenses like groceries or child care while you’re recovering. We believe that when life hits hard, your insurance should hit back—with support that’s simple, timely, and built around your real needs.
Hospital Indemnity Insurance pays you a set amount per day (or per event) when you’re hospitalized. That means you can use that money however it helps most—whether it’s to cover a bill, pay your rent, or keep things running smoothly at home. It's often used as a smart add-on to Medicare Advantage or Marketplace health plans to fill in the coverage gaps and avoid major financial surprises.
You’re on a Medicare Advantage plan and concerned about high inpatient copays
You want protection for unplanned emergencies that require hospitalization
You’ve had a recent hospital visit and realized how costly it can be
You want peace of mind for yourself or your family members in case something happens
