Accidents: a fact of life According to the National Safety Council… • 66% of all accidents occur off-the-job. • More than 23.8 million injuries required medical attention in 2003. • In 2004, over 82% of all costs due to accidental injuries were non-medical costs and expenses. National Safety Council, Injury Facts, 2005-2006 Edition, p2, p23, p4 The above facts represent U.S. population, are for information only and do not imply coverage under the policy or endorsement of the company or the policy by the cited sources.
But that’s only one piece of the puzzle. Also consider: • Worker’s compensation only covers injuries that occur on the job. • Major medical plans may cover only routine medical expenses for accidents or disability, leaving uncovered costs such as copays and a host of other expenses for you to pay out of your own pocket. • Loss of income due to disability can strip you of your wealth – and the lifestyle to which you’re accustomed. • An accident plan is a great supplement to a high-deductible health plan.
The bottom line: There are TWO basic costs associated with accidents. MEDICAL EXPENSES • Costs typically covered by standard medical insurance, such as doctor and hospital bills NONMEDICAL EXPENSES • Unavoidable expenses that may come out of your own pocket. The benefits described in the policy do not cover all nonmedical expenses. However, the benefit payment you receive can be used to pay any of your medical or nonmedical costs not paid by any other insurance.
How would YOU pay for unexpected costs? • Spend your savings • Sell off assets • Preserve resources by acquiring supplemental accident insurance. Supplemental insurance can help!
