Voluntary Worksite Benefits and Hospital Indemnity Insurance
In an era of uncertainty, workers and business owners, alike, want to be protected against worst-case scenarios. Voluntary worksite benefits, including hospital indemnity insurance and critical illness protection, offers partial income replacement and money to cover medical bills and hospital care.
Replace Income During a Medical Emergency or Critical Illness
In states that offer statutory disability, like New Jersey and New York, or paid family and medical leave, like Connecticut and Massachusetts, critical illness protection or critical health insurance can supplement this income. In other states, critical illness protection is important to help employees pay bills and help business owners maintain their standard of living even in the event of an accident or long-term critical illness.
Multiple Coverage Options for Peace-of-Mind
Especially today, employers are looking to offer their workers the best benefits packages available to cover them in virtually every contingency. Our country has faced some of the most challenges times in recent history during the pandemic. People are coming out of the emergency situation with a better grasp of their finances and knowledge of what they need to survive – and thrive – financially in difficult times.
Hospital indemnity insurance plans may offer Day-1 coverage for COVID-19 and other illnesses, unlimited pregnancy coverage, and options for coverage of mental health and substance abuse disorders.
Accident coverage may provide lump-sum cash payouts for 80+ accidental, off-the-job injuries. Some policies may offer flexible features such as coverage for childcare, home health care, joint replacement surgery and even alternative treatments such as acupuncture.
Critical illness protection, or critical health insurance, can also provide coverage for those suffering from COVID-19, long-haul COVID-19 patients, and a variety of other common critical illnesses including heart disease, stroke, cancer, and symptoms related to diabetes. Policies are flexible and employers can choose coverage for specific illnesses to increase coverage for at-risk populations or reduce coverage to lower premiums.

Now more than ever, employees are stressed about their health and finances simultaneously. One study by The Hartford discovered that millennials, workers with children, and low-income households with annual income under $50K were the most stressed segments of the population.
In a Prudential study reported by Forbes, 40% of employees said they were more likely now than they were pre-pandemic to accept a job with better employee benefits, including emergency medical coverage, disability insurance, Group Life / AD&D, and paid family leave benefits.
