Accidents Happen - Prepare Now to Help Avoid Financial Pain

Everything was going well that Saturday morning. The weather was perfect; you and your family were enjoying your daughter’s track meet - and she was doing very well. But when her left foot touched the ground upon landing in the long jump event, something went terribly wrong. She crumbled to the ground and curled up in tremendous pain.

After following up with her orthopedic surgeon, you were told that she had torn her ACL.

Each year, medical facilities see a steady stream of children in treatment for sports-related injuries. Whatever the activity - track and field, football, baseball, swimming, soccer, basketball - playing a sport comes with inherent risks that could lead to an injury. Texas Children's Hospital reports that the most common sports injuries are: dislocated shoulder, ACL tear, concussion, fracture, and sprain*.

If your children participate in sports, you accept that there is some risk of injury. Health insurance may cover many of the costs associated with sports injuries, but as deductibles and copays continue to increase, so do your out-of-pocket costs. Accident insurance may be a great way to alleviate a sudden financial burden that an unforeseen injury brings.
