Enrolment is now open for individuals and families in Washington to join a new Hospital Plan. It provides cash benefits for hospital room and board, doctor bills for operations and incidental expenses, with a liberal childbirth benefit included.
The outline lists 89 liberal benefits with 45 days hospital room and board per member, hospital extras such as medicines, X rays, operating room and anesthesia, ambulance, and cash to pay doctors for operations per member.
