A benefit period is a length of time during which a benefit is paid. This may be a government benefit such as the British Housing Benefit, or a healthcare benefit system such as the American Medicare, or payment from an insurance policy such as a Payment protection insurance which covers mortgage or other commitments after accident, illness or redundancy. It may also be known as the Payment period.

Medicare
In the context of the United States healthcare system Medicare, a benefit period begins the day a beneficiary is admitted to a hospital or skilled nursing facility (SNF). The benefit period ends when the beneficiary has not received any inpatient hospital care (or skilled care in a SNF) for 60 days in a row. If a beneficiary is readmitted into a hospital or SNF after one benefit period has ended, a new benefit period begins.
Benefit year or season
