Why is Health Coverage Important?

Financial Protection for the Unexpected

The average cost of three days in the hospital is around $30,000. Maintaining health care coverage can protect your financial health by lowering the amount you would need to pay out of your own pocket for unexpected medical expenses. Medical debt can also lead to increased stress, and it can impact your credit score.

Peace of Mind

If you’re paying for medical services out of your own pocket, you may make health care decisions based on money instead of what’s best for your health and well-being. Having health insurance gives you the peace of mind that you will always have your health care covered.
