La importancia del seguro de gastos médicos

Health insurance offers many benefits. Even if you enjoy good health, you never know when you might have an accident or get sick. Acudir al hospital puede ser mucho más costoso de lo que usted espera. Health insurance protects you and your family from financial losses in the same way home or car insurance does. Considere estos datos:

  • The price tag of a 3-day hospital stay is around $30,000.1
  • A trip to the emergency room for an adult could cost as much as $3,500.2
  • The average cost for childbirth is over $18,000.3
  • Treating a broken leg can set you back $7,500.4  

These examples sound scary, but here's the good news. With the right plan, you can protect yourself from most of these and other types of medical bills.
