As employees face rising out‑of‑pocket medical costs, employers are increasingly focused on benefits that meaningfully support workforce well‑being. With hospital stays averaging $2,883 per day1, even short hospitalizations can create significant financial strain. At the same time, declining confidence in health plan coverage for major medical events underscores the important role supplemental health benefits can play in supporting employees during critical moments.

Join us for an overview of Guardian’s enhanced Hospital Indemnity Insurance and learn how it helps employees manage the financial impact of a hospitalization — while supporting their mental, physical, and financial well‑being. In this webinar, we’ll cover:

  • How benefit payments paid directly to employees, including maternity claims at 36 weeks, newborn nursery care, and inpatient mental health and substance abuse care, can help reduce stress during major life events, hospital stays, and recovery.

  • How built‑in wellness services beyond the hospital — including caregiving support through Wellthy and fertility, hormonal health, and family‑building support through Carrot — help employees navigate key life moments with greater confidence.

  • How Guardian helps deliver added ease and simplicity across the claims, administration, and enrollment experience.
