Extra financial support when accidents happen
Accident insurance provides financial assistance to help cover unexpected costs resulting from accidental injuries. While health insurance covers many medical expenses, accident insurance helps with additional expenses like deductibles, copayments, and everyday bills that can add up during recovery.

How does accident insurance work?
If you suffer a covered injury, accident insurance pays a lump sum or scheduled benefits based on the type and severity of the injury. The payments can help cover costs not included in your regular health insurance, such as transportation, child care, or household bills.
You typically pay a monthly premium for this coverage, and benefits are paid regardless of other insurance you have.
Who should consider accident insurance?
- Individuals and families seeking to reduce out-of-pocket costs from injuries
- People with physically active lifestyles or high-risk jobs
- Those without sufficient emergency savings
- Anyone looking for extra financial protection beyond health insurance
Why it matters
Accidents can happen at any time and often lead to unexpected expenses that go beyond medical bills. Accident insurance helps ease the financial strain so you can focus on recovery without added stress.
