      Medical Transportation

      Most people assume that their health insurance will cover most, if not all, the costs for these transports. However, the opposite is usually true, leaving you with financial responsibilities. Medical Transport coverage pays these costs so you don’t have to.

      Telemedicine services allow doctors to treat patients via video chat/webcam, phone, or email. These services have grown in popularity in recent years and offer a cost-effective way to get quick and convenient access to medical care when you need it.

      Basic & Voluntary Life/AD&D Insurance

      Life insurance coverage is designed to help provide financial support and stability to your family should you pass away.

      How does it work? You keep coverage for a set time, or “term.” If you die during that term, the money can help your family pay for living expenses, final arrangements, tuition and more.

      AD&D Insurance is also available, which can pay a benefit if you survive an accident but have certain serious injuries. It can pay an additional amount if you die from a covered accident.

      More coverage is also available through Voluntary Life and AD&D insurance. Please review plan documents below for more detailed information.

      Universal Life Insurance
