You can use it as you see fit, to cover many things, like emergency room, ambulance, hospital stays, doctors, medications, surgery  and even other expenses you may face, like hotels, transportation.  If you also have medical insurance, it can help to pay out-of-pocket expenses such as deductibles, copays, transportation to medical centers, childcare and more.
