Does Hospital Indemnity Insurance Help Cover Recurring Stays?
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / June 21, 2025 / A three-day stay in the hospital costs an average of $30,000 in the United States.1 While health insurance can help reduce your out-of-pocket costs if you have to be admitted to the hospital, there are contingent costs that may not be covered by your insurer. The cost of hospital stays, and other expenses like childcare could have a significant impact while you are unable to work. A hospital indemnity insurance policy can help with these costs. Here, we explore what health insurance helps cover and how the cash benefits of hospital indemnity insurance can help fill coverage gaps relating to recurring hospital stays. What does health insurance help cover? Many people receive health insurance through their employer, which can help with the cost of a hospital stay. Employer-sponsored health insurance plans cost an average of $111 per month, while Marketplace plans cost an average of $456 per month.2 So, if you're wondering, " How much is health insurance ?,' the answer depends on your specific circumstances and plan options. Marketplace health insurance plans typically cover a range of essential health benefits, including:3 Outpatient services Emergency services Hospitalization for surgery or overnight stays Pregnancy, maternity and newborn care Mental health and behavioral health treatment Prescription drugs Rehabilitative and habilitative services and devices Laboratory services Preventive and wellness services Chronic disease management Pediatric services Hospital costs are usually covered at least in part by primary health insurance plans, but you'll still have to pay copays and deductibles, and your health insurance plan may be subject to coverage limits. What is hospital indemnity insurance? Hospital indemnity insurance is a supplemental plan that can help fill gaps in your primary health insurance. It's not a replacement for health insurance but can help you with unexpected expenses and provide additional support if you've had multiple hospital stays that forced you to reach a coverage limit. Hospital indemnity insurance works similarly to health insurance in that you pay premiums to an insurance provider in exchange for coverage. You may have access to a plan through your employer, or you can purchase an individual plan directly from an insurance company. Unlike health insurance, however, hospital indemnity insurance plans typically pay eligible cash benefits based on the policy option you choose. You can use the benefits in any way you see fit, such as: Out-of-pocket medical expenses Childcare Living expenses like groceries, rent and utilities Plans may function differently between providers, but typically, you can file a claim for care provided while in the hospital, and your insurance provider pays eligible claims to help you with the costs of your hospital stay. Why is hospital indemnity insurance worth it? There are a number of reasons why you might consider a hospital indemnity insurance plan. These may include: Added financial assistance: Hospital stays can be expensive, especially if you have to go multiple times in the same year. Hospital indemnity insurance helps provide added financial support for recurring visits. Flexibility: Health insurance plans typically pay the hospital directly for treatment. But hospital indemnity insurance pays cash benefits direct to the policyholder, unless otherwise assigned, so you can use it for both medical and non-medical costs. Surpassing coverage limits: If you've reached a health insurance coverage limit after being admitted to the hospital several times, you could still use the hospital indemnity insurance. Ultimately, if you think you or a family member will have multiple stays at the hospital in a given year, hospital indemnity insurance could help provide some added peace of mind. The bottom line Hospital indemnity insurance provides coverage options that can help with recurring hospital stays. This supplemental policy pays cash benefits direct to the policyholder, unless otherwise assigned, so you can use your benefits to help fill gaps in your health insurance coverage or help pay living expenses. Consider applying for a hospital indemnity insurance policy for added peace of mind. Sources: 1 - Why health insurance is important.

Retransmission - Dr. Meegan Gruber Shares Insight on Plastic Surgery Transparency: How Younger Generations Are Shaping a New Era of Body Authenticity
A culture change is affecting how people talk about cosmetic surgery, from popular TikToks to BBL reversals. Dr. Meegan Gruber shows why choices made with knowledge and power are becoming more critical. TAMPA, FLORIDA / ACCESS Newswire / June 20, 2025 / Younger people are driving a new wave of openness in the world of cosmetic surgery. They are not only accepting procedures but also expecting complete transparency about them. The way people talk about plastic surgery is changing. Body-positive creators are sharing their stories online, and an increasing number of influencers are discussing their personal transformations and life changes. Gruber Plastic Surgery is at the forefront of this culture change. Board-certified plastic surgeon and founder of Gruber Plastic Surgery, Dr. Meegan Gruber MD PhD, notes that more patients are coming in with greater knowledge, asking more in-depth questions, and selecting procedures that align with a growing movement toward natural beauty and authenticity. "People don't feel like they have to hide their procedures anymore," says Dr. Gruber. "Patients want to be real, and not just in how they look. They also want to know that their choices are respected and supported." "They want to know if the changes can be undone, if the results will still work in the future, and how their bodies will change." This change has also led to the so-called BBL Reversal Era, in which many people are seeking more natural, proportional results after years of trying to achieve curves that were too large. Instead of making surgery look cool, today's patients are pushing for adults to make decisions based on self-awareness and sustainability. This is reflected in the popularity of awake procedures, such as awake liposuction, at Gruber Plastic Surgery. During these procedures, patients remain awake and aware throughout, and they are actively involved in the conversation during the surgery. This method not only speeds up recovery but also fosters trust and openness, which are traits that today's patients consider essential. Dr. Gruber says, "Education is a form of empowerment." "Whether someone is thinking about a first procedure or a revision, we want to take the mystery out of every step." There is no such thing as a small question. We don't see radical openness as a trend; it's our way of life. It's less of a secret to have cosmetic surgery now that TikTok, Reddit forums, and wellness shows talk about everything from how to care for scars to the different kinds of implants. As a result? A public that knows more has fewer unrealistic demands and cares more about safety and ethics. Suppose you're thinking about getting surgery, like a breast revision, liposuction, or a BBL reversal. In that case, Dr. Gruber advises that you should undergo a comprehensive evaluation and prioritize your own goals over what others think is cool. About Gruber Plastic Surgery Gruber Plastic Surgery, located in Tampa, FL, is led by Dr. Meegan Gruber, MD Ph.D., a board-certified plastic surgeon renowned for her pioneering work in awake surgery. Dr. Gruber, also the star of "Awake Surgery," which you can stream today on TLC GO, HBO MAX, Hulu, Discovery+, and other streaming platforms, integrates advanced techniques and cutting-edge technology to deliver safe, comfortable, and natural-looking results with minimized recovery time. Specializing in awake surgeries, the clinic offers a range of state-of-the-art procedures. Dr. Gruber is committed to innovation and education, ensuring precision and safety in every treatment, while enhancing patient confidence through individualized care and surgical expertise.

Dr. Todd H. Lanman to Present at International Total Disc Arthroplasty Masterclass in Amsterdam
BEVERLY HILLS, CA / ACCESS Newswire / June 18, 2025 / World-renowned spinal neurosurgeon and motion preservation expert Dr. Todd H. Lanman will join an elite international faculty at the Total Disc Arthroplasty Masterclass in Amsterdam on June 20, 2025. Dr. Lanman will deliver a series of educational presentations and case-based discussions on the expanding indications for total disc replacement (TDR)-including highly complex cases. Dr. Lanman, founder of Lanman Spinal Neurosurgery and ADR Spine, will present on challenging lumbar and cervical disc arthroplasty cases, including those involving multilevel degeneration, prior fusions, or advanced pathology. His contributions will spotlight evolving strategies that broaden candidacy for motion-preserving surgery-particularly for patients once limited to spinal fusion. He will also participate in a faculty-led panel discussing revision strategies and clinical decision-making in difficult and multi-level cases. "We are forging the new age of spinal surgery," said Dr. Lanman. "With the right technology and expertise, we can now offer motion-preserving solutions to patients who were never considered candidates for disc replacement-patients with prior fusions, complex anatomies, or multilevel disease." The Masterclass begins on June 19, 2025, with a dinner and pre-conference case discussions, followed by a full day of expert-led lectures and panels on June 20 at the nhow Amsterdam RAI Hotel. Dr. Todd Lanman will join a distinguished international faculty that includes Dr. Scott Blumenthal (Texas Back Institute), Prof. Dr. Rudolf Bertagnoli (Pro-Spine ECSA, Germany), Dr. Thierry Marnay (CCV Montpellier, France), and Prof. Matthew Scott-Young (Gold Coast Spine, Australia). Dr. Thierry Marnay will deliver a keynote lecture entitled "What Gives? Why are Spine Surgeons So Far Behind Total Joint Surgeons?" addressing systemic, cultural, and clinical barriers to wider adoption of disc arthroplasty. He will also co-lead participant case discussions, contribute to the session on advanced lumbar case reviews, and serve on the expert faculty panel for complex cervical case analysis Prof. Matthew Scott-Young will open the Masterclass with a program overview and contribute to case discussions throughout the event. His formal lectures will address cervical disc indications, including motion preservation versus ACDF, and provide an in-depth analysis of cervical disc designs, covering implant materials, mechanical philosophy, and evolving technologies such as fixed versus mobile cores. Prof. Dr. Rudolf Bertagnoli will present on lumbar complications and revision surgery strategies, including case examples highlighting surgical decision-making in complex revision scenarios. He will also lead sessions on optimizing surgical technique for multilevel cervical arthroplasty and challenging anatomy and participate in interactive discussions on complex cervical cases and disc selection considerations by spinal level. Dr. Scott Blumenthal will deliver a foundational lecture on lumbar disc arthroplasty, focusing on indications, patient selection, and clinical evidence, as well as considerations for when fusion may still be relevant. He will also lead case discussions on lumbar pathology, and present strategies for cervical revision surgery and participate in the final panel addressing the future of disc arthroplasty. The Masterclass underscores a growing international consensus that spinal fusion should no longer be the default solution for degenerative disc disease and that total disc arthroplasty is both viable and preferable in an expanding range of cases.
