If you become injured or ill and are hospitalized, your health insurance will pay a portion of your medical costs. But no plan pays for everything. Your share of the hospital bill with coinsurance, copays and deductibles could be costly—let alone the extra out-of-pocket expenses that might occur.
Hospital Confinement Indemnity Insurance pays a daily benefit if you have a covered stay in a hospital, critical care unit, or rehabilitation facility*. The benefit amount is determined based on the type of facility and the number of days you stay. Features of this insurance include:
*A hospital does not include an institution or part of an institution used as: a hospice care unit; a convalescent home; a rest or nursing facility; a free-standing surgical center; a rehabilitative center; an extended care facility; a skilled nursing facility; or a facility primarily affording custodial, educational care, or care or treatment for persons suffering from mental diseases or disorders, or care for the aged, or drug or alcohol addiction. “Critical care unit” and “rehabilitative facility” are specifically defined in this policy. See the certificate for details.
Hospital Confinement Indemnity Insurance is a limited benefit policy. It is not health insurance and does not satisfy the requirement of minimum essential coverage under the Affordable Care Act.
