Why Consider a Accident Expense Plan?

Metal Gap 2: Accident Medical Insurance
Guaranteed issue medical gap plan that provides lump-sum payment for covered critical illnesses as well as accident medical expense, and accident hospital confinement.
Your major medical plan could leave you responsible for deductible and coinsurance expenses in the case of a serious accident or illness. Metal Gap 2 offers options to complement your health plan in the event of a covered illness or accident.
Metal Gap 2 insurance includes accident and critical illness benefits to allow you to focus on your number one priority: getting better. Metal Gap 2 insurance provides benefits for covered accidents up to the selected maximum amount, or the actual expense you incur, whichever is less. Critical illness benefits provide a lump-sum payment that is sent directly to you and can be used for anything you choose, including:
• Out-of-pocket expenses
• Living expenses
• Lost wages
Critical illnesses and serious accidents are never expected. Metal Gap 2 provides you with additional coverage you need while recovering, and your acceptance is guaranteed!
