Hospital indemnity

Pays when you're admitted to the hospital, whether from illness or injury, depending on the plan.

Accident insurance

Pays for covered injuries, including ER visits and fractures that don't require a hospital stay.

Using both

Some families carry both: accident for everyday injuries, hospital indemnity for longer stays from illness.
