Accident Plan

Extra financial protection when the unexpected happens.

For life’s unexpected moments

M&T Bank offers the Accident Plan through Aetna to help cover unexpected expenses. Unlike medical coverage, which pays healthcare providers, Accident Plan benefits are paid directly to you.

How the Plan Works

If you experience a covered accidental injury, the Accident Plan pays a cash benefit based on the type of injury and treatment you receive. Payments are made directly to you can be used for medical expenses, household bills, travel costs or other financial needs. Benefits are paid in addition to any other insurance you may have.

You pay the full cost of coverage through convenient after-tax payroll deductions. You can enroll yourself, your spouse or domestic partner and your dependent children. Review 2027 healthcare premiums.
