Are your clients covered for “Observation” stays?
Help Protect Your Clients during
Observation Stays with Advantage Plus!
A recently enacted federal law requires hospitals to alert Medicare patients after 24 hours of receiving observation care.* Observation coding may leave patients with more out-of-pocket expenses than if they were admitted as inpatient. The good news is there’s a solution to help with this problem!
With Advantage Plus, “Observation” hospitalization stays of 12 hours or more are treated the same way as “Inpatient” stays!** There are zero reduction of benefits and no Observation day limitation up to the policyholder’s benefit period!
Help take worry out of observation stays!
