Why Hospital Indemnity?

The average hospital stay is 4.5 days, and the average hospital bill is $11,259.*

With medical costs rising, Assurity can help cover expenses by paying benefits starting at admission for each day of hospital confinement — reducing out-of-pocket costs related to unexpected hospital expenses.

Employers can choose between lump-sum and daily benefit options. Employees can use benefit payments to cover medical expenses, supplement lost income, or to pay for groceries, bills or whatever they want.
