Hospital Help Plan Overview

Depending on the insurance you have, your share of a hospital bill can quickly add up to hundreds - or even thousands - of dollars.

The MooseVIP Hospital HELP Plan insurance pays cash benefits that will DOUBLE the longer your covered hospital stay.

The Hospital HELP plan starts accruing cash benefits on the first day of your covered hospital stay. That means:

• You can set up protection to give yourself (and your family) an extra stream of cash benefits...
• One that isn't tied to your medical insurance...
• Paying regardless of any other health plan...
• Putting money back in your wallet if you were sick or hurt and ended up in the hospital.

That means $50.00 a day paid from the first day you enter the hospital. Another $50.00 on day two. Another $50.00 on day three. $50.00 each and every day for 14 full days.

Your cash benefits jump up to $100.00 a day on day 15.

And they stay at that double-benefit $100.00 level ... paying you $100.00 day after day of your hospital stay... all the way through day 30.

It pays FOUR TIMES as much $200.00 a day... starting on day 31. And those benefits do not go down. You stay at $200.00 a day. Every single day of your hospital stay. All the way until day 365 if needed.

But what if you run into something really serious? Like cancer? Or a heart attack? Or a stay in the Intensive Care Unit? Medical bills can quickly escalate in those situations. Hospital HELP does, too.

Your cash benefit DOUBLES for each day you are hospitalized due to cancer or are confined in the cardiac care or intensive care unit. That means $100.00 a day from day one. $200.00 a day starting on day 15. $400.00 a day from day 31.

These benefit payments are sent directly to you (unless you tell us otherwise).

Spend the money however you want. There will be no questions asked.

But maybe you're wondering what happens if you get your care in a VA hospital. (Many Moose Members proudly served our nation and earned that right). Hospital HELP stands strong for VA care, too. You get $50.00 a day for days 1-14 and $100 a day for days 15-30. Even if your VA care costs you nothing at all.

NOTE: THIS IS NOT A MAJOR MEDICAL HEALTH INSURANCE POLICY. YOU SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER A MAJOR MEDICAL POLICY BEFORE PURCHASING SUPPLEMENTAL INSURANCE SUCH AS THIS OFFER.

Benefits

Benefits–Paid REGARDLESS OF Medicare and Your Medical Insurance

Hospital costs continue rising and there’s currently no end in sight. That’s why it’s so important to have a plan like the MooseVIP Hospital HELP Plan insurance coverage.

The MooseVIP Hospital HELP Plan steps forward with benefits for hospital stays, intensive care, cardiac care or care for cancer, rehabilitative facilities, and V.A. hospitals.

Here’s how it works: The MooseVIP Hospital HELP Plan starts accruing $50.00 a day from Day 1 of your hospital stay. That’s $350.00 paid straight to you if you stay a week.

You’re in the hospital for cancer? Or you need extra care in an intensive or cardiac care unit? Your cash benefits DOUBLE to $100.00 a day … $700.00 a week.

Your doctor wants you to continue your recovery in a rehabilitative facility? Your cash benefits continue with $50.00 a day sent straight to you on day one. Benefits continue to be paid to you each day up to day 100.

Doesn’t Medicare or my Medical Insurance pay all of my hospital bills?

Generally, the answer is “no.” Medicare was never designed to pay all your hospital costs. When you go to the hospital, Medicare and most major medical insurance plans require you to pay a deductible … co-payments … balance billing … and goods and services in the hospital not covered by your plan. As a result, your out-of-pocket hospital bills could add up to hundreds, if not thousands of dollars– even for a short stay. The Hospital HELP Plan pays you a flat indemnity payment to help with your non-medical, out-of-pocket costs while in the hospital.

Do I need a medical exam to enroll?

Absolutely not. There are NO medical exams or health questions involved when you sign up for this important program. As a Moose Member, you (and your spouse) are GUARANTEED coverage – no matter what your age or health now. (subject to the pre-existing conditions provision.*)

I’ve had health problems in the past. Can I still sign up?

Yes. As soon as your coverage goes into effect, you are immediately covered for any new injuries or sicknesses. Any injury or sickness you’ve had in the last twelve months will not be covered until you’ve gone twelve consecutive months with no medical treatment or you’ve been covered by the Hospital HELP Plan for one continuous year, whichever happens first.

If I go to the hospital many times, will I lose this coverage?

No. It doesn’t matter how often you need to stay in the hospital. You can NEVER be singled out as an individual for cancellation or even a rate increase. So there is NO LIMIT to the number of claims you can make.

What if I decide Hospital HELP Plan isn’t right for me?

There’s no obligation with the program’s 30-Day Free Look. As soon as you sign up, we’ll send you a Certificate of Insurance. Look it over for a full 30 days. If you’re not complete satisfied, just let us know. We’ll cancel your coverage and give you a complete 100% refund of any premium you've paid as long as you haven’t made any claims during that time.
