Accident Insurance
Accident Insurance pays you benefits for specific injuries and events resulting from a covered accident. The amount of benefit depends on the type of injury and the care received. The Accident Insurance Plan pays benefits for accident-related hospital care, follow-up care, common injuries, and emergency care. Accident Insurance is not health coverage, like a medical plan, but is a limited benefit policy that supplements your health coverage.
In addition to accident-specific benefits, the plan also provides an annual wellness benefit if you receive a covered health screening.
The accident insurance plan is administered by Voya.
The plan defines an accident as an unforeseen event that results in bodily injury. For the benefits described below, an accident is covered if it:
- Occurs on or after your coverage effective date and the effective date of any riders,
- Occurs while your coverage is active, and
- Is not specifically excluded.
