Accident Insurance
Accident Insurance:
Accidents can strike at any moment. Though we can never predict them, you can take steps to help protect yourself if they do.
When working alongside your major medical insurance policy, accident insurance can help keep yourself protected from the financial burdens that result from an unexpected injury due to an accident. It helps cover expenses that major medical insurance won’t, giving you additional peace of mind while helping to save you unnecessary costs.
Offer Additional Protection:
Transamerica’s supplemental accident insurance works side-by-side with major medical insurance to help cover injuries and treatments due to a covered accident. It assists with recovery costs, including those accrued from treatments such as acupuncture, chiropractic, mental health, and much more, accelerating their paths to feeling better.
Highlights:
- Insurance for individuals and families
- Easy payroll-deduction premiums
- Fully portable if an employee leaves the group
