Ancillary Benefits Medicare

Private Medicare plans, such as Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplements, provide coverage for many benefits, but they don't cover everything. Ancillary insurance products, such as separate dental plans, heart attack insurance, and life insurance, are also important. Depending on your Medicare plan(s), you may need ancillary insurance products to have comprehensive coverage and peace of mind.

Ancillary insurance products refer to any insurance product that is beyond the scope of traditional health insurance or not included in your healthcare plan. Life insurance is one of the most common ancillary products, but there are many others. Ancillary private health insurance can help cover the healthcare needs that your Medicare insurance does not cover.

We sell various ancillary products, such as dental, vision, hearing, cancer, heart attack, stroke, hospital indemnity, life, and final expense insurance. You may not need all of these products, but bundling benefits can be an option. For instance, you might find a combination dental and vision plan or a combination heart attack and stroke plan. Whether you need any of these products depends on your finances, genetic probability of certain conditions, and the types of plans available in your area.

It's essential to note that ancillary insurance products don't replace your current health insurance. Instead, they supplement your existing coverage. If you need ancillary insurance, Woody's Insurance can help you with your needs.
