Are you prepared for an accident? An unexpected injury can result in high out-of-pocket medical and non-medical costs. Our Accident Insurance offers guaranteed acceptance & pays a lump sum directly to you to cover deductibles, copays, & more.

An accident is always unexpected, but the high medical bills that typically follow don't have to be a financial surprise.

Medical Minute: Hepatitis B Vaccine Policy Update

A federal advisory panel has voted to recommend delaying the hepatitis B vaccine for most newborns, overturning a 30-year-old policy that helped dramatically reduce infections in infants. The change would allow parents of babies born to hepatitis B-negative mothers to discuss timing of the vaccine with their doctor, potentially starting at 2 months instead of at birth.

Experts warn that delaying the birth dose could increase the risk of chronic hepatitis B infections, liver cancer, and hepatitis B-related deaths. The American Academy of Pediatrics continues to recommend the birth dose, and final approval from CDC leadership is still required.

Follow DCMS for updates on this evolving policy and what it means for pediatric care.
