One of the best ways to attract and keep quality employees is to offer a competitive, comprehensive benefits package. Even with great health insurance, serious injury or sickness can cause a financial burden to a family. Today, medical bills are the number 1 cause of U.S. bankruptcies.

In fact, 43 % of adults with health insurance say they have difficulty affording their deductible, and roughly 33% say they have trouble affording their premiums and other out of pocket costs.
That’s why insurance to help protect consumers from all but inevitable out of pocket costs, as well as the cost of everyday expenses like gas, rent, mortgage, and other bills.
