What is Specified Health Event insurance?

A serious health event such as heart attack, end-stage renal failure or third-degree burns is not only a life-altering physical event, but a devastating financial one as well. Specified health event protection insurance may make all the difference by providing cash benefits as you concentrate on your recovery.

Covered health events also include:

  • Stroke
  • Paralysis
  • Coronary artery bypass surgery 
  • Persistent vegetative state
  • Major human organ transplant
  • Coma

Who should think about Specified Health Event & Medical Condition insurance?

Anyone who has experienced a serious medical condition or procedure understands the very real financial impact of lost wages, medical bills, and those everyday bills that won't stop just because you're laid up. A specified health event insurance policy helps with the medical expenses related to a covered life-threatening health event.
