How Do I Add Someone to My AFLAC Policy?

AFLAC stands American Family Assurance Company of Columbus. It is an insurance company that was started in 1955 in Columbus, Georgia. AFLAC offers supplemental insurance. Supplemental insurance is a type of policy that works to fill the gaps that are in your main and primary insurance cover. For instance, supplemental insurance can cover your loss of income after you get ill while your primary insurance covers your medical bills.

You can take supplemental insurance to cover a specific area like cancer supplemental insurance coverage. The payout options with a supplemental cover are also diverse and you may choose to be paid the whole amount as a lump sum of small payments over time. Most deductions for AFLAC's insurance cover are made from deductions in your payroll from your employer. However, you also have the option of paying AFLAC directly.

Getting an AFLAC supplemental insurance cover does not cover you for all the gaps that your primary insurance does not cover. You can however pay for the specific covers that you want. There are many benefits that AFLAC Offers including health screening, short-term disability, and dental insurance, and life insurance. You can also get cover for accidents, hospital insurance cover, and any other specific health cover.
