Frequently Asked Questions

Can accident insurance be used to cover out-of-pocket costs?

Yes, you can use your benefit payment as you see fit. Use it to help cover your household bills, medical insurance deductibles, copayments, and more.

Are benefits paid directly to me or to my healthcare provider?

Payments will be paid directly to you, not to the doctors, hospitals, or other healthcare providers. You will receive a check, payable to you, for maximum convenience.

I have a good medical plan at work. Why would I need additional coverage for accidents?

Accidents can happen any time, to anyone, when you least expect them — and they can be costly. Even quality medical plans can leave you with extra expenses to pay. Costs like plan deductibles, copays for doctor visits, and extra costs for out-of-network care can add up fast. Having the financial support you may need when the time comes means less worry for you and your family.

Can I enroll in this insurance without having to take a medical exam?

Yes. NASE offers accident insurance and your acceptance is guaranteed, regardless of your health. You just need to be and active NASE member in good standing for your coverage to be effective. There are no medical exams to take and no health questions to answer.
Medical Insurance for this plan is required for members in MN, NY and VT.

Is there a waiting period before my coverage begins?

No. This supplemental insurance will be effective on the date of your coverage as long as you are active and in good standing with the NASE. There are no waiting periods to satisfy.

Is the claims process simple?

Yes. Once all required information is received, claims are generally processed within 10 business days. Only one claim form is needed per accident, and every claim is reviewed by a claims professional.
