Protection for Life has Three Primary Components

Your family has hopes and dreams for the future—life insurance can help protect them

Expecting the unexpected is one thing, paying for it can be quite another. Supplemental insurance can pay you a direct cash benefit to help with expenses

A good health policy is indispensable and can also be surprisingly affordable


The Affordable Care Act

Protections under Health Reform: ► Lifetime limits are prohibited and annual limits are restricted

► You can't be refused insurance or charged more because of a pre-existing condition

► Children up to age 26 may remain on a parent’s policy ► Preventive services must be covered and cannot have cost-sharing

► Many people are now eligible for a break on health insurance costs through tax credits called subsidies

► All individual and small group health policies are required to include certain “essential health benefits.”

– Those benefits include coverage on ambulatory patient services; emergency services; hospitalization; maternity and newborn care; and more.
