Understanding Supplemental Insurance
Supplemental insurance is coverage that works alongside your primary health or Medicare plan to help pay for costs that your main plan does not fully cover. These plans are not a replacement for primary health insurance. They are designed to provide an additional layer of financial protection.
The most common types of supplemental insurance include accident insurance (which pays a lump sum if you are injured in an accident), critical illness insurance (which pays a benefit if you are diagnosed with a serious condition such as cancer or a heart attack), and hospital indemnity insurance (which pays a daily or per-admission benefit when you are hospitalized).
Supplemental plans can be especially valuable for people with high-deductible health plans, Medicare enrollees who face significant out-of-pocket costs, or anyone who wants additional financial protection against unexpected medical events.

Frequently Asked Questions About Supplemental Insurance
Have more questions? Call us at 913-333-8627 — we’re happy to talk through your situation.
Is supplemental insurance the same as a Medicare Supplement?
No. A Medicare Supplement (Medigap) plan specifically works with Original Medicare to cover costs like copays and deductibles. Supplemental insurance — such as accident or critical illness coverage — is a broader category that can work with any type of primary health coverage.
How are supplemental benefits paid?
Most supplemental plans pay benefits directly to you, not to a doctor or hospital. This gives you flexibility to use the money for medical bills, lost income, travel, or any other expenses that arise during a health event.
Can I get supplemental insurance if I already have Medicare?
Yes. Many Medicare enrollees add supplemental coverage to help with costs that Medicare and even a Medigap plan may not fully cover. We can help you identify which supplemental plans make the most sense alongside your existing Medicare coverage.
Are there health questions or medical underwriting for supplemental plans?
It depends on the plan and carrier. Some supplemental plans are guaranteed issue (no health questions), while others require medical underwriting. We will explain the requirements for any plan we recommend before you apply.
