Who should consider the Hospital Cash Benefit?

You should consider the Hospital Cash Benefit if you’ll need money to help pay for some of the unexpected expenses that add up if you are hospitalized. You decide how to best spend the hospital cash benefit. It could be for expenses to pay for a semi-private hospital bed, parking or transportations costs, or to take care of children or pets while you are hospitalized. Knowing that you have access to a Hospital Cash Benefit, affords you the freedom to make your hospital stay as comfortable as possible, with the peace of mind that the additional expenses that you’ve incurred are being covered.
