# Guaranteed Acceptance for $20,000 of TMA Member Critical Illness Insurance for Members Under Age 65

 5 February 2022

Whether you work in a hospital or in an office setting, you no doubt recognize the benefits of collaborating with specialized medical professionals. No one physician can do it all, instead you work together to provide the best possible care to your patients. The same applies to insurance. Your comprehensive health insurance is vital to maintaining your health–but it can’t do it all. If you become seriously ill, high deductibles, copays and maximum benefit limits can quickly cause financial strain during an already stressful time.

TMA Member Critical Illness Insurance is specialized, supplemental insurance that can help protect your financial assets in the event of a sudden, serious illness. **Until February 25th, if you are a member under the age of 65, you are guaranteed acceptance for $20,000 of TMA Member Critical Illness Insurance**. Members can also apply for up to $250,000 of coverage.

## Don’t Pay Out of Pocket, Put Money IN Your Pocket

Upon diagnosis of a covered illness, the TMA Member Critical Illness Insurance will pay out a lump sum of **$20,000 directly to you**. You determine how the payment is used. Put it toward your high deductible, pay for medications or use it for out-of-pocket medical and non-medical expenses—the choice is yours. Your lump sum payment can help protect your hard earned income and savings so you can keep your focus on recovering your health.

Covered illnesses and the percentage of benefits paid out upon diagnosis are:

- Cancer (Invasive) – 100%
- Alzheimer’s Disease – 100%
- Heart Attack – 100%
- Major Organ Failure – 100%
- Renal (Kidney) Failure – 100%
- Stroke – 100%
- Cancer (Non-invasive, other than skin cancer) – 25%
- Multiple Sclerosis – 25%
- Occupational HIV Infection – 25%
- Parkinson’s Disease – 25%
- Severe Coronary Disease – 25%
- Terminal Illness – 25%

There are NO medical questions asked and NO underwriting. Your diagnosis is all that is needed to receive your payment. Another major advantage of the TMA Member Critical Illness Insurance is that as long as you are a TMA Member, this coverage stays with you regardless of any changes in your employment situation.

## Speak with a TMA Insurance Trust Advisor:

**This coverage is not health insurance coverage (often referred to as “major medical coverage”)**.

 

**This type of plan is NOT considered “minimum essential coverage” under the Affordable Care Act and therefore does NOT satisfy the individual mandate that you have health insurance coverage.**

 

Group Critical Illness Insurance coverage is a limited benefit policy issued by The Prudential Insurance Company of America, a Prudential Financial company, Newark, NJ. Prudential’s Critical Illness Insurance is not a substitute for medical coverage that provides benefits for medical treatment, including hospital, surgical and medical expenses and does not provide reimbursement for such expenses. The Booklet-Certificate contains all details, including any policy exclusions, limitations, and restrictions which may apply. If there is a discrepancy between this document and the Booklet-Certificate/Group Contract issued by The Prudential Insurance Company of America, the Group Contract will govern. A more detailed description of the benefits, limitations, exclusions applicable are contained in the Outline of Coverage provided at time of enrollment. Please contact Prudential for more information. Contract provisions may vary by state. Contract Series: 114774.
