Helpful app simplifies family caregiving by combining your loved one’s insurance benefits and medical records into one user-friendly platform while enhancing your caregiving skills
A medical emergency is when you, your loved one, or any other prudent layperson with an average knowledge of health and medicine, believes that medical symptoms require immediate medical attention to prevent devastating illness, loss of life, loss of a limb, or loss of function of a limb.
The medical symptoms may be significant illness, injury, severe pain (including any unexplained or uncontrolled chest pain), or a medical condition that is rapidly getting worse.
Emergency care is services that are needed to evaluate, treat, and/or stabilize an emergency medical condition and are rendered by a provider qualified to furnish emergency services.
This benefit does not include ambulance services (see Ambulance Services benefit).
