Review Your Health Coverage for Summer

As the days grow longer and the temperatures rise, summer brings with it endless opportunities for adventure: road trips, beach outings, kids' sports, or backyard barbecues. But amidst all the excitement, one thing that often gets overlooked is health insurance coverage. Don't dive into the season without making sure your health plan has you covered!

Seasonal Activities

Outdoor recreation and organized sports are more common in the summer in many areas of the country. When you have health coverage, you and your family can be better prepared for accidents, injuries, or weather-related emergencies that may occur during these activities.

Travel Considerations

Hello, vacation! Does your policy offer coverage for out-of-network or emergency services while you're away? You may need to add travel coverage if your policy does not already include it. When you’re covered, an unexpected trip to the doctor doesn’t need to put an even bigger damper on your trip.

Preventative Care

Summer may mean more time off work and the kids are out of school for a few months. With this extra flexibility, it can be an ideal time to schedule preventative care appointments, health screenings, and dental or vision check-ups for the whole family.

Health and Wellness Programs

Some policies offer great incentives and discounts when you participate in a wellness program or meet measurable health goals. With the warmer weather and more hours of sunlight, summer is a great time to get your steps in or participate in an organized wellness class! Don’t forget to check your policy to see if you qualify for deals on fitness tracking devices.

Before the season begins, be sure to make an appointment with your agent so that you can enjoy summer worry-free!
