If you or a family member are experiencing a serious medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest medical facility offering emergency care. Emergency situations are defined as a “life-threatening or limb-threatening” situation, including chest pain, difficulty breathing, shortness of breath, uncontrolled bleeding, and signs of a stroke. Emergency room services are covered in your plan.
