Insurance
Auto
Insurance - Car insurance protects you and your
family financially if you ever have an accident in your car.
You have a contractual agreement with your car insurance
company. If you pay the premium you agree to in a timely
manner, the car insurance company will cover your losses in the
event of an accident. Most states require that you carry car
insurance in order to drive a vehicle of any type.
Health
Insurance - Individual and family health
insurance plans are usually described as either "indemnity"
or "managed-care" plans. Put broadly, the major differences
concern choice of healthcare providers, out-of-pocket costs
and how bills are paid. Typically, indemnity plans offer a
broader selection of healthcare providers than managed care
plans. Indemnity plans pay their share of the costs for
covered services only after they receive a bill (which
means that you may have to pay up front and then obtain
reimbursement from your health insurance company). There
are several different types of managed-care health
insurance plans. These include HMO, PPO, and POS plans.
Managed-care plans typically make use of healthcare
provider networks.
Dental
insurance works in much the same way that
medical insurance works. For a specific monthly rate
(or "premium"), you are entitled to certain dental
benefits, usually including regular checkups,
cleanings, x-rays, and certain services required to
promote general dental health. Dental
Discount Cards provide you with a great way to
save money on your dental care needs. As a cardholder,
you'll enjoy discounts of up to 60% with a national
network of leading dental care providers. Getting your
Dental Discount Card is easy. There is no lengthy
approval process. No medical exams are required. You
don't have to provide information or records regarding
your health history. Here are some of the providers:

Life insurance is a contract that
binds an insurance company to compensate a beneficiary
in the event of the death of the insured person. If the
insured person dies, the insurance company will pay a
cash benefit to the beneficiary (typically a family
member). Life insurance is often used to protect a
family against the economic hardship that could result
from the death of a primary income-earner.
Term life insurance is a specific
type of life insurance, which has become very
popular in recent years. Term life insurance
provides protection for a specified period of time,
typically 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 or 30 years (this is
called the coverage term). The person to be insured
selects the coverage term, and a death benefit is
paid to the beneficiary (or beneficiaries) if the
insured dies while the policy is still in force.
Term life insurance works well for people who need
coverage for only a specific period of time. For
example, when a child is born, a parent may take
out a 20 or 25-year term life policy to ensure that
in the event of their death, the child will be
provided for through his or her college years.
