Emergency medical transportation often comes with a heavy price tag
Ambulance rides along with the emergency medical services they provide address the crucial first phase of an individual’s care and can have a profound effect on patient outcomes. However, 23% of Americans say that during a medical emergency in which they needed immediate transportation, they purposely didn’t call an ambulance due to the potential cost.1
The unfortunate reality is that ambulance services are expensive and often result in out-of-pocket costs.
- $2K average cost for a ground ambulance2
- $69K average cost of an air ambulance2
- Nearly 60% result in an out-of-network bill3
Introducing Emergency Transport Protection powered by MASA®
Securian Financial has teamed up with the industry’s premier emergency medical transportation benefit service, MASA, in an exclusive agreement to offer market-leading ambulance coverage paired with our group accident insurance product.
Many supplemental health providers have an ambulance benefit that pays a flat dollar amount, but it’s often limited and much less than the total medical transport cost. Emergency Transport Protection goes beyond flat dollar payouts and provides comprehensive coverage for critical EMS services and ambulance rides due to any qualifying health care event, not just accidents.
