What is a family deductible?
With a family deductible benefit your insured family is only required to satisfy
a maximum of three (3) deductibles during the coverage period.
What is a reasonable and customary charge?
A "reasonable and customary charge" is the charge typically made by physicians
or suppliers of medical services, medicines and supplies within a specific
geographic area.
Do I need precertification?
Pre-admission certification prior to eligible inpatient hospitalization or
surgery by the covered individual within 48 hours is required. This is not a
guarantee of benefits. Failure to precertify will result in a benefit reduction
of 50%. Call 1-800-367-9938 for precertification.
When does coverage terminate?
Coverage ends when the premium is not paid when due; you enter full-time active
duty in the Armed Forces; you become eligible for Medicare, this applies to
states where association membership is a requirement; the elected coverage
period expires; Standard Security Life Insurance Company determines fraud or
misrepresentation has been made in filing a claim for benefits; or a dependent
ceases to be eligible; **you cease to be a member of the association or the
group master policy terminates.
** This applies to states where association membership is required.
Can I continue coverage?
If your need for temporary health insurance continues, you may apply for another
Secure STM plan. Your application is subject to eligibility, underwriting
requirements and state availability of the coverage. The next coverage period is
not continuous and any condition incurred during the last coverage period will
be excluded as a pre-existing condition.
