Accident Insurance
Enhanced Accident Insurance
Accident Insurance from Trustmark Insurance Company helps pay for unexpected health care expenses due to non-occupational accidents that occur every day, from the soccer field, to the ski slope, and the highway in between. Please watch the Accident Insurance video for more information on this benefit.
With Trustmark's Accident Insurance, you can focus your energy on recovery rather than worry about how you are going to pay your bills. The program offers you the opportunity to apply for coverage in key benefit areas and continue that coverage should you change jobs or retire.
Note: If you are currently not an Accident Insurance policyholder you are only eligible to enroll in the Enhanced Accident Insurance Plan. The 2016 Open Enrollment was the last opportunity to change coverage to the Enhanced Accident Plan if you were enrolled in the Accident Insurance Plan.
Eligibility
When both you and your spouse are eligible for insurance under this policy as an Employee, you may each enroll either as an Employee or the Dependent of an Employee, but not both. Spouse must not be disabled at the time of application.
