Insurance Benefits Included:
Accident Medical Expense Benefit
The Accident Medical Expense Benefit (AME) pays in excess of any other insurance coverage you may have for the expenses you are charged by a hospital, doctor, or certain other charges, up to a maximum of $5,000 if you are injured in a covered accident. Subject to a $100 deductible.
Accidental Death & Dismemberment Benefit
The Accidental Death & Dismemberment Benefit (AD&D) pays the beneficiary up to $25,000 for the member’s death or loss of certain body parts (e.g. limbs, speech, eyesight, or hearing) in a covered accident.
If, within 365 days from the date of an Accident which occurs while coverage is in force, Injury from such Accident results in a loss covered by this benefit, We will pay the benefit in the amount set opposite such loss, as shown on the Schedule of Benefits. If more than one such loss is sustained as the result of one Accident, We will pay only one amount, the largest to which the Covered Person is entitled.
Hospital Indemnity Benefit
Hospital indemnity benefit provides support by offering a fixed daily amount of $250, for up to 30 days, to help offset the costs associated with a hospital stay. This benefit ensures that individuals have an additional layer of financial security during their hospitalization.
Critical Illness Benefit
(Cancer Lump Sum Benefit Rider and Limited Specified Disease Benefit Rider)
The Cancer Lump Sum Benefit RIder and Limited Specified Disease Benefit Rider (CHS) pay the insured up to $5,000 in the event they are diagnosed with a critical illness such as cancer, heart attack, or stroke.
Cancer Definition: Cancer means a disease manifested by the presence of a malignancy characterized by the uncontrolled growth and abnormal spread of malignant cells and the invasion of body tissue by such malignant cells. Cancer includes Hodgkin’s disease and leukemia. This definition excludes such cancers as:
Pre-malignant tumors or polyps; Skin Cancer, except malignant melanoma; and Cancer In Situ.
Cancer will not be a covered condition when advice or treatment is received within the Waiting Period, if any, or prior to the Effective Date, and such advice or treatment leads to the Diagnosis of Cancer. If tissue is extracted during the Waiting Period, if any, or prior to the Effective Date, and results in a Diagnosis of Cancer, this will not be a covered condition. If Cancer is Diagnosed and/or treated within the Waiting Period, or if medical advice is given within the Waiting Period which leads to the subsequent Diagnosis of Cancer after the Waiting Period, the Covered Person has the option to cancel the Rider and receive a refund of all premiums paid on this Rider.
