What is seconday insurance?
Secondary insurance through Alliance pays most deductibles and out-of-pocket expenses up to the policy limit after your primary medical plan has paid its covered expenses. For the AFA Premier Plan, your secondary coverage pays a total of $7,500 toward your deductible and out-of-pocket maximum, meaning you only have to pay $500 of your own money. To receive full benefits, be sure to give your doctor both your primary insurance card and your secondary insurance card.
