Comprehensive Coverage: We cover a variety of injuries resulting in visits to the Emergency Room, Urgent Care, the physician’s office, or virtual medical consultations.

Beyond Medical Bills: You have the flexibility to choose how to use the money, including essential needs such as mortgage payments or childcare, providing additional financial security.

Event-Based Claims

Our innovative process simplifies the overall claims experience, helping maximize benefits payments for employees and their covered dependents.

How it works:

  • When an event occurs — like an injury, sickness, or hospital stay — the employee fills out one, simple online form on their portal or calls to tell us what happened.
  • Pacific Life evaluates your submission and automatically generates claims on all related coverages.
  • Employees receive prompt and direct benefits payments.

At Pacific Life, we optimize the claims process, allowing our members to focus on what matters most and providing added financial security for life's unexpected events.
