Hospital Indemnity Insurance
Being hospitalized for a sickness or injury is a common occurrence, and can happen to anyone at any time. While your medical insurance may cover hospital bills, it may not cover all of the costs associated with a hospital stay, such as deductibles and co-pays, transportation, and lodging.
That's where Hospital Indemnity coverage can help.
Who is Hospital Indemnity Insurance for?
Hospital Indemnity Insurance is for people who need help covering the costs associated with a hospital stay if they suddenly become sick or injured.
What does Hospital Indemnity Insurance cover?
If you are admitted to a hospital for a covered sickness or injury, you can receive payments that can be used for any purpose, such as:
- High deductibles and copays
- Travel to and from the hospital for treatment
- Child care service assistance while recovering
Why should I consider Hospital Indemnity Insurance?
Guardian's Hospital Indemnity benefit can help pay for out-of-pocket costs associated with being hospitalized in addition to your medical coverage, and can give you more of a financial safety net for unplanned expenses brought on by a hospital stay. Payments are made directly to you , even if you did not actually incur any out-of-pocket expenses.
