Benefits

Sometimes called supplemental insurance, these benefits enhance your employees’ medical insurance to help prepare them for life’s unexpected challenges, like a sudden illness, injury or accident. Payable directly to the employee, they can be used to pay expenses that other insurance may not cover, like lost wages, out-of-pocket expenses or household bills.
