Aflac is the leader in voluntary supplemental benefits at the worksite. Many insurance options bring value to your staff and pay cash benefits when medical events occur. The benefits received are used toward out-of-pocket medical expenses, non-medical expenses, and income loss, which likely occurs when unexpected accidents or illnesses happen.
