Boston Mutual to market Beazley's gap medical product


MINNEAPOLIS, March 17, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Beazley U.S. Accident & Health has entered into a new marketing agreement with Boston Mutual Life Insurance Company, a national provider of insurance solutions for individuals and at the workplace.

Boston Mutual will now market Beazley's gap medical product providing reimbursements for eligible out-of-pocket medical expenses, including deductibles, co-pays and coinsurance. This product requires an underlying major medical plan and works most effectively for groups with high-deductible plans.

About Beazley Supplemental Medical (gap medical)

Benefits and range of options may vary by state. Premium will vary based on plan chosen. A waiting period for late entrants may apply. This policy is renewable at the option of the company.

The Supplemental Medical Expense (out-of-pocket) plan is not a major medical plan. The product is designed to reimburse certain covered expenses, and is only available if an employer has a major medical plan in place. Out-pocket expenses submitted for reimbursement must be eligible under the major medical plan, and must meet the coverage definitions under our policy (may not include full reimbursement, if annual plan limits have been met). Riders for outpatient services performed in a physician's office/urgent care, or for outpatient chemotherapy/radiation performed in a licensed facility, may not be available in all states.
