Few medical insurance plans pay 100 percent of the expenses for hospital and medical care. Even qualified health plans may require an individual to cover deductibles, co-pays, co-insurance and other out-of-pocket expenses – which can add up to thousands of dollars a year. Chubb Accident & Health’s GAP Supplement Insurance Plan is specifically designed to fill the gaps of an underlying major medical plan by reimbursing an individual’s covered out-of-pocket expenses.
