Illness, or Hospital Indemnity) protects you from expenses not covered by your medical plan.
• In fact, you may be able to save money by adding a supplemental plan to a lower cost medical plan.
• Supplemental plans are available in most, but not all states.
• Coverage is available for you and your dependents.
• On their own, supplemental plans do not provide the minimum level of coverage needed to meet ACA requirements.

Here are two easy ways you can save moneyon healthcare expenses:
In-network vs. out-of-network: Before you visit a doctor, dentist, provider, or facility, make sure that the person or facility is in-network, meaning he or she (or it) is part of your health plan. If you see an out-of-network provider, your costs will be higher. You can check on this by calling the provider’s office, or by looking online. Usually, it’s safest to call.
Generic medications: Make sure that when you visit the pharmacy or call mail-order for your (or your family’s prescriptions), you ask for the generic equivalent of the medication. Sometimes, however, generic will not be available.
