Choose a daily benefit from $100 to $600 a day, in $100 increments. This cash benefit can be paid directly to you or to anyone you choose for each day you or a covered dependent is confined to a hospital. And it can be used in any way you see fit… to help with out-of-pocket medical expenses, transportation to and from the hospital, private room upgrades, even to cover household expenses.
Benefits are payable from the first day of hospital confinement due to a covered illness or injury, and they can continue for up to 365 days for each covered stay, subject to the pre-existing conditions limitation and terms of the Certificate of Insurance.
If you’re over 60, you can receive double your daily benefit for your first day of covered hospitalization. That’s as much as $1,200.
Your full daily benefit is payable for each covered visit to the emergency room — for up to five visits a calendar year, even if you’re not admitted to the hospital.
Receive your full daily benefit per visit, if you’re kept for observation without being admitted to the hospital. This benefit can be paid twice per calendar year, but it can’t be combined with other benefits if you are confined in-hospital, except if you and your insured spouse are involved in the same accident, or on the first day of hospital confinement if you are age 60 or older.
Receive your full daily benefit amount, up to five times per calendar year, for a covered medically necessary surgical procedure performed by a physician in a hospital or ambulatory surgical center.
Receive double your daily benefit amount, if both you and your insured spouse are hospitalized for the same covered accident. That’s up to $1,200 a day while you’re both hospitalized. For up to 365 days, if you’re under age 60, or up to 100 days, if you’re 60 or over.
If you’re age 60 or over and confined to a Skilled Nursing Facility, you’ll receive 50% of your daily benefit for up to 80 days, starting on day 21. Confinement must begin within seven days of a covered hospitalization or observation stay of at least one day.
If you and your covered spouse are age 60 or over and totally disabled (as defined in the certificate,) you can get help recuperating at home after a covered hospital stay of at least 10 consecutive days. You can receive 50% of your full benefit amount for either the number of days you were hospital confined or 30 days per calendar year, whichever is less.
This plan pays 100% of your daily benefit amount for covered hospital confinement due to pregnancy. Benefits are subject to pre-existing condition limitations, but complications due to pregnancy are not subject to the pre-existing limitation.
Receive your full daily benefit amount for up to 30 days per covered stay, if you are under age 60 and confined to a hospital due to alcohol or drug abuse. Receive full daily benefit amount for up to 100 days if you are age 60 or older. Treatment in a residential facility is payable at 50% of your daily benefit amount for up to 30 calendar days a year.
Receive your full daily benefit amount for up to 30 days per covered stay, if you are under age 60 and confined to a hospital due to mental and nervous disorders. Full daily benefit payable for up to 100 days if you are age 60 or older.
