Supplemental Insurance


Supplemental Insurance Information

US Supplemental Health Insurance Options

****SPECIAL NOTICE – Read our Annual Federal and Individual States Market Update****

There are several different types of supplemental health insurance plans. We combine these supplemental plans with a Fixed Benefit and/or Short Term Medical plan to create our comprehensive alternative health plan packages. However, these supplemental plans can also be combined with ACA/Obamacare individual plans as well as employer provided (group) health insurance to enhance overall coverage. 

The different types of supplemental plans we have available include: 

  • Accident protection
  • Critical Illness Protection (including NEW guaranteed issue plans)
  • Cancer Treatment Coverage
  • First Day Hospital/ICU Stay Protection
  • 100% Preventive Care (Per ACA/Obamacare guidelines)
  • Prescription Drug coverage
  • Dental, Vision and Hearing
  • Life Insurance 
  • Freshbenies Value Added Services

The following contains additional information about each of the above supplemental plan types.

Supplemental Accident, Critical Illness, Cancer Treatment & Hospital Coverage

Supplemental Accident Protection 

Why an Accident Plan?
Over 50% of ALL medical treatment received in this country is the result of an accident
. The CDC estimates that 9.2 million children had an ER visit last year due to an accident. Leading causes include falls, car accidents, and burns. The CDC also estimates that
30% of all ER visits are because of an injury. The costs are substantial, but often times are paid out of pocket due to the high deductibles on health plans. 

That is why I recommend adding a separate accident policy. We have plans available from several different companies. These plans provide payment for all healthcare treatment received as a result of an accidental injury. Some plans will pay up to a set amount per accident and others will provide you with an annual amount of money (up to $15,000 per individual and $25,000 per family). 

An Extra Bucket of Cash

bucket of cash

A supplemental accident plan is an inexpensive, extra "bucket of cash" for you to use to cover treatment related to an accident! 

Important Note: All plans pay in addition to any other existing health insurance you have. In most cases these plans do not coordinate with your existing health insurance, which means that they will continue to pay up to your chosen benefit amount regardless of what you get from other health insurance that you have.

Critical Illness Protection

We have plans from several companies that allow you to choose from $5,000 to $100,000 per adult and up to $10,000 per child in coverage should anyone be diagnosed with a covered critical illness such as cancer, heart attack, stroke and other covered illnesses. These plans pay you a lump sum upon diagnosis. This is money that can be used to help pay for deductibles, lost time from work, travel, etc. 

NOTE: Again, these plans pay in addition to any other existing health insurance you have. 

Why a Critical Illness Plan?

For starters, it’s important to realize that NO health insurance plan — “Cadillac” or otherwise — covers all the medical and non-medical costs related to a serious illness. And second, the costs of a serious illness such as heart attack, stroke or cancer can be significant.

Second, the statistics related to the primary critical illnesses are significant:

  • EVERY 34 SECONDS an American will suffer a heart attack. Heart attack hospitalizations cost patients a median of $53,000. If bypass surgery is needed, costs can skyrocket to the $86,000-to-$178,000 range.
  • EVERY 40 SECONDS someone in the US has a stroke. According to the CDC, 1 out of 20 deaths in America are due to Stroke. Stroke hospitalizations cost patients a median of $31,000. 
  • CANCER RISK for men in the US are about 1 in 2 lifetime of developing cancer. For women it is a little more than a 1 in 3 lifetime risk. As for cost, see the articles below under the Manhattan Life Cancer Care Plus Cancer and Dread Disease plan information.

Add onto the above bills the additional expenses following hospitalization, including rehabilitation, therapy, ongoing medical care and drugs.

Personal Note: In October-November, 2019 I had two situations with existing clients.

  • One, a 61-year-old man with NO PRE-EXISTING conditions on his application 7 months prior, had a cerebral hemorrhage (a STROKE) and is DEAD.
  • The other, an otherwise healthy 63 year-old woman, had a serious heart attack! The good news on this story is that my client is alive. The BAD news is that she and her husband are on a fixed income supplemented by part-time jobs. They are now out $8,000 in deductible and coinsurance on their Gold level health plan. Plus, other new, ongoing medical care and non-medical costs. 

Even the VERY BEST health insurance can leave people with significant non-medical costs related to a serious illness, such as home adaptations or equipment, travel for treatment, and lost income from missing work.

Neither of these clients of mine took advantage of a Critical Illness plan that would have paid them EXTRA cash! They didn’t do it. YOU CAN!

LifeSecure logo LifeSecure Critical Illness Plans:

We also work with LifeSecure as one of our main companies for supplemental Critical Illness plans. Their plans are not always the least expensive, but their benefits are as good as any other company. 

With LifeSecure you can include from $5,000 to $50,000 per adult and $2,500 per child in lump sum coverage should anyone be diagnosed with a covered critical illness such as cancer, heart attack, stroke, etc.

LifeSecure Critical Illness plans also have unique features that other companies don’t offer. These include (See the brochure below for more details):

  • Payment for MORE than ONE Illness – Many Critical Illness policies only pay ONE time. LifeSecure will pay if you are later diagnosed with a second, different illness.
  • Payment for Re-Occurrence of an Illness – After the initial benefit payment, if you have a re-occurrence of the same illness, you can receive an additional payment equal to half the original benefit. 

LifeSecure Critical Illness plans are available for people ages 18 through 70 (64 in California) and guaranteed renewable to age 75.

For more information and to see sample rates by state, download the LifeSecure CI Brochure.

NOTE:  These critical illness plans are health underwritten. Please download and review the LifeSecure Critical Illness App Questions to make sure you qualify.

Cancer Treatment Coverage

Manhattan Life logoManhattan Life Cancer Care Plus:

This is a different variation on most critical illness policies that pay a one-time, lump sum amount. This Cancer Treatment plan includes a unique MONTHLY Chemotherapy, Radiation AND Immunotherapy benefit of $2,500 to $7,500 depending on the plan option. It also provides treatment benefits for many other dread diseases AND benefits for over 20 other related services.  

Cancer Care Plus plans are available for people ages 18 through 69 (64 in California) and guaranteed renewable FOR LIFE! 

Also, the monthly premium for your Cancer Care Plus plan is locked in based on your age when you sign up. The only way your premium will change is if the company raises the rate for ALL policyholders in your entire state. 

The Manhattan Life Cancer Care Plus plan is available in these states: AL, AR, AZ, CA, CO, FL, GA, IA, ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, LA, MD, MI, MN, MO, MS, MT, NC, ND, NE, NH, NM, NV, OH, OK, OR, PA, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VA, WA, WI, WV, WY

Why Cancer Insurance?

Because, as noted in the fourth article below, According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), the statistics say that men have a 39.3% lifetime chance of being diagnosed with cancer and women a 37.7% chance.. In addition, please check out the following articles:

  • Almost half of new cancer patients lose their entire life savings – Note that the average amount a cancer patient lost in savings was $92,098!
  • The Hidden Costs of Cancer – Note the costs of lost wages (200 hours), out of pocket treatment costs in addition to your health insurance deductible/coinsurance and numerous indirect expenses.
  • Underinsured Patients Opt to Crowdfund Cancer Treatment in Light of Rising Costs – This is the situation my friend found herself in (see PERSONAL NOTE 2 below). Unfortunately, doing this isn’t likely to raise anywhere close to the costs most people will incur.
  • Medicare Out-Of-Pocket Costs For Cancer Treatment Every Retiree Should Know - About 77% of all cancers are diagnosed in people 55 or older, and the median age for cancer diagnosis is 66. The article discusses three areas of additional out of pocket costs above insurance – 1. High-cost oral maintenance drugs (median annual out of pocket costs over $8,000). 2. Experimental treatment options not covered by Medicare. 3. Travel, lodging and meals expenses.
  • New article – High Cost of Cancer Treatment – This article is loaded with information. It notes that the average monthly costs range from $1,000 to $12,000  for chemotherapy, $9,000 for radiation and $10,000 to $12,500 for immunotherapy. Also, please read the “Survivor Stories: Toll of Cancer Costs” near the end of this article.

 

PERSONAL NOTE: My late wife battled breast cancer for over 7 years. During that time, she had multiple treatments for chemotherapy and radiation as well as a couple different surgeries, etc. We were very fortunate to have excellent coverage through her employers. However, even with that great coverage, we still had paid $20,000 to $25,000 out of pocket over those 7 years. When I recently found out that this product is available in my state, I signed up for myself the same day!

PERSONAL NOTE 2: I have a friend from high school has been living with Stage 4 lung cancer for 6 years! SIX YEARS of continuous treatments of chemotherapy, radiation, experimental treatments, etc. Plus, travel to Houston and California and Seattle. She estimates that they have spent $5,000 to $10,000 per year out of their pocket PLUS another $30,000+ in travel and related costs. That’s $60,000 to $90,000+ over and above what health insurance has paid. She said without the help of a GoFundMe page (see article above), they would have lost their house. She also said she could have taken a supplemental cancer plan at work but thought it would never happen to her! 

Current Client Note: On 12/31/2019 I found out that a client was diagnosed with blood cancer diagnosis at age 64 and 8 months. They had a $2500 ded, 80/20% to $5k plan and said the bills were killing them. This client has now set up a GoFundMe page to help pay for out of pocket costs. With even the minimum amounts of critical illness and cancer treatment coverage, all out of pocket costs could have been covered without needing charity. 

Don’t let a cancer diagnosis eat up your life savings!

Hospital Confinement Protection

As noted in this recent article hospital expenditures are 38.3% of total healthcare expenditures nationally. In other words, they are the most expensive places to receive care. 

That is why we have a VERY inexpensive supplemental plan designed to provide coverage for the first day hospital/ICU stay that you have in any year. 

Manhattan Life logo Manhattan Life Out of Pocket Protection Plan:

Manhattan Life's Out of Pocket Protection plan is available in these states: AL, AR, AZ, CA, FL, GA, IA, IL, IN, KY, LA, MD, MI, MO, MS, NC, ND, NE, NM, NV, OH, OK, PA, SC, SD, TN, TX, WI

These plans that let you choose a lump sum of $2,500, $5,000 or $6,350 for your first day in the hospital for each plan year. The plans all include $100 or $200 per day to cover the cost of your doctor visiting you in the hospital. You can also add an optional (recommended) $250 Emergency Room Accident benefit and a rider that pays $1,000 to $3,000 for up to two Outpatient Surgeries per year.

The Out of Pocket Protection plans are available for people ages 18 through 69 (64 in California).

Important Maternity Tip: The Out of Pocket Protection plan is one of the ONLY plans we know about that WILL pay for a hospital stay for the delivery of a baby! 

Most women will deliver their baby in a hospital. That means they will ALWAYS have at least ONE overnight stay for the delivery. They will also have potentially LARGE out of pocket expenses for health insurance deductibles and coinsurance. As long as the mother-to-be is covered on this plan for longer than 1 year before delivery, the plan WILL PAY the selected benefit amount for the first overnight stay related to the delivery. Potentially saving you THOUSANDS out of your pocket. 

ACTUAL CLIENT SCENARIO:Regarding the Manhattan Life Out Of Pocket Protection supplemental hospital benefit plan above. I had a client spend 3 days in the hospital because of a blood clot. He chose NOT to take this supplemental hospital benefit plan. AFTER PPO network discounts, his balance owing was $16,000. 

For around $41/month, he could have received an extra $6,650 ($6,350 + $100/day). This would have significantly reduced or eliminated his out of pocket cost from his primary health plan. 

NOTE: Once again, these plans pay in addition to any other existing health insurance you have. So in addition to being a highly recommended part of our alternative health plans, they are great for supplementing any high deductible health plan at a very affordable price.

Enrollment First logo Enrollment First Life Insurance:

Enrollment First offers two very unique group life insurance plans. They have a 10-year term life plan and a universal life plan. One unique feature is that these plans are available to independent contractors and self-employed small business owners.

What is more unique is that both of their plans offer up to $100,000 of coverage (NEW starting 12/1/19) on a guaranteed acceptance basis. That means that if someone with health issues, who might not otherwise qualify for individual life insurance, can get some much needed life insurance coverage for their family! 

Another great feature is that both the term life and universal life plans offer “Living Benefit” coverage of an Accelerated Death Benefit for Terminal Illnesses and Long-Term Care.
