NOTE: This is not basic health insurance or major medical coverage and is not designed as a substitute for basic health insurance or major medical coverage. In addition, hospital indemnity plans are exempt from coordination of benefits provisions and are stand alone insurance products and may be purchased separately. This program provides limited benefits that are supplemental and not intended to cover all medical expenses. The plan will not pay benefits for any care provided prior to the coverage effective date or if you are confined in a hospital at the time the coverage is effective.

This is a brief description of coverage and is subject to terms, limitations and exclusions of the policy. Actual offerings may vary by group size and by state. Please see your agent.
