Additional Benefits to Consider
You're unique - and so are your benefits
In addition to traditional benefits like health insurance, life insurance and more, Colonial Group offers a variety of additional benefits to enhance your well-being, provide protection and increase job satisfaction.
Supplemental Health Plans
What are supplemental health plans?
Supplemental health plans provide peace of mind and financial protection for expenses not covered by your primary health insurance. A hospital stay, serious illness or injury may not be just a physical setback. It can also disrupt your mental, social, and financial well-being.
The following benefits offer you and your family an expanded safety net of coverage. In most cases, once you enroll, premiums will be conveniently deducted from your paycheck.
Accidental Injury Insurance
Life is unpredictable. Be prepared for life's surprises with Accident insurance. The plan pays a benefit for a covered accident and the benefit amounts depend on the type of injury and treatment received. Whether you break a bone or experience a more serious injury, you can use the money for medical bills, monthly expenses and other bills that you may have while you recover. Accident insurance is provided by Aflac. You may elect at the time of hire or open enrollment.
Covers wide range of common injuries and services. Benefit is based on type of injury and treatment needed. High/Low coverage options.
Covered injuries may include:
- Broken Bones
- Burns
- Torn Ligaments
- Concussions
- Eye Injuries
- Ruptured Discs
- Lacerations
Covered services include:
- Emergency room visits
- Hospitalization

Critical Illness Insurance
The out-of-pocket costs of a serious illness can be significant, even with medical insurance. To help offset these costs, Critical Illness insurance provides extra financial protection, paying a lump-sum directly to you if you are diagnosed with a covered condition, like a heart attack, cancer or stroke. That way you can focus on getting better, instead of worrying about how to cover your bills. Critical Illness insurance is provided by Aflac. You may elect at the time of hire or open enrollment.
Lump sum, tax-free benefit immediately upon diagnosis of a covered condition; coverage options of $10,000, $20,000 or $30,000.
Covered conditions include, but are not limited to:
- Invasive Cancer
- Heart Attack
- Stroke
