Treatment must be over and above emergency treatment administered in the first 72 hours following the accident and must begin within 30 days of the covered accident or discharge from the hospital. This benefit is not payable for the same visit the Physical Therapy Benefit is paid.

  • Transportation Benefit: AFLAC will pay $300 per trip to the hospital if a covered person requires special treatment and confinement in a hospital located more than 100 miles from the covered person’s residence or site of the accident. This benefit will be paid only for the covered person for whom the treatment is prescribed; or if the treatment is for a dependent child and commercial travel is necessary, the dependent child’s parent or legal guardian who travels with the child will also receive this benefit. Only one person will be paid to travel with the dependent child. The local attending physician must prescribe the treatment, and the treatment must not be available locally. This benefit is payable for up to three trips per calendar year per covered person. This benefit is not payable for transportation by ambulance or air ambulance to the hospital.
