Health
Insurance
Finding a good health insurance policy to
cover you and your family, or for you and
your employees, can be a struggle,
especially if you run your own business, or
your employer does not provide health
insurance coverage. If you have recently
lost your job, there are options available
other than COBRA. If you currently have
health insurance, how do you know that the
health insurance policy you have is best
suited to your current lifestyle and medical
needs. As your life changes so do your
health insurance requirements. If you are
self-employed there are affordable health
insurance polices that provide good coverage
without devouring your profits.
There are a number of life factors to
consider when choosing a health insurance
policy:
- Are you
a recent college graduate?
- Are you
between jobs?
- Are you
getting married?
- Are you
raising a family?
- Are you
planning to start your own business?
- Are you
planning to retire early?
- Do you
have a family history of serious
disorders or disease ( heart disease,
diabetes, cancer, etc.) ?
Once you
have determined your personal ser of
circumstances, there are a number of
other considerations to factor in to
your choice of health insurance policy:
- I
want to keep my own doctor
- I
want a high deductible
- I
want a low co-pay
- I
want a Health Savings Account (HSA)
- I
want a prescription drug benefit
The
answers to these and other questions
will determine the right policy for
you and your family.
Medicare
Medicare is a Health Insurance
Program for:
-
People age 65 or older
-
People under age 65 with certain
disabilities
-
People of all ages with
End-Stage Renal Disease
(permanent kidney failure
requiring dialysis or a
transplant)
Medicare has Four Parts:
Medicare Part A:
Helps pay for inpatient care in
a hospital or skilled nursing
facility (following a hospital
stay), some home health care and
hospice care. Most people don't
have to pay for Part A.
Medicare Part B
Helps pay for doctors' services
and many other medical services
and supplies that are not
covered by hospital insurance.
Most people pay monthly for Part
B.
Medicare Part C (Medicare
Advantage)
Provided by private insurance
companies as a replacement of
Part A and Part B. People with
Medicare Parts A and B can
choose to receive all of their
health care services through one
of these provider organizations
instead of through Medicare.
Part C plans are available in
many but not all areas.
All people pay monthly for Part
C. This payment is in addition
to the monthly premium paid for
Part B.
Medicare Part D (Prescription
Drug Benefit)
Provided by private
companies to help pay for
prescriptions, which are not
covered by Original Medicare.
Part D is available to everyone
with Medicare. All people pay
monthly for Part D. This payment
is in addition to the monthly
premium paid for Part B

as Medicare Supplement
Insurance, also known as Gap
insurance that will cover those
benefits that Medicare does not
cover, as well provide quotes

Disability Insurance and Long
Term Care Insurance
Disability Insurance
Disability insurance is a
basic concept. Most policies are
designed to replace 45-60% of
your gross income on a tax free
basis, should a sickness or
accident prevent you from
earning income in your
occupation. Every disability
insurance policy from every
insurance company is very
different. This is not a product
to simply shop for the most
competitive rate. To buy the
cheapest disability insurance
policy on the market is to throw
money away. The odds of getting
paid a monthly benefit under a
cheap disability insurance
policy may be significantly
lower than receiving benefits
from a quality disability
insurance policy. The
specialists at Palm Beach
Insurance Quotes will guide you
to the disability insurance
policy that will give you the
benefits you expect in case you
should experience an accident or
extended illness, at a price
that you can afford.
Long Term Care Insurance
The facts are clear. Anyone who
has had a passing experience
with Alzheimer's disease,
Parkinson's disease, stroke, or
elder frailty are all too
familiar with the severe and
devastating financial
consequences. Over half of all
Americans will spend part of
their twilight years in a long
term care facility, yet very few
Americans plan for this more
than likely possibility. By
providing long term care
protection you will rest easier
and your loved ones will be
grateful to you for wisely
planning ahead.
Let the independent agents at
Palm Beach Insurance Quotes find
the right long term care
insurance plan to fit the needs
of you and your family. |
Homeowner's
Insurance
Homeowners insurance compensates you for
losses to your home and your possessions
inside it, so purchasing a homeowner's
insurance policy provides added security for
your investment. Homeowner's insurance also
protects you if you're legally liable for
someone's injuries on your property, as
well as from financial losses caused by
storms, fire, theft and other events
outlined in your policy.
Different companies offer different
homeowners insurance policies, so choosing
the right policy means finding the right mix
of coverage to meet your needs. Generally, a
standard homeowner's insurance policy
protects the following:
- The
physical structure of your home
-
Structures on your property (storage
sheds, pools, boathouses, etc.)
- Your
personal property and belongings inside
your home, up to specified limits
- Your
liability or legal responsibility for
any injuries and property damage you or
your family members cause to other
people
- Injuries
to your household pets while inside your
home
-
Additional living expenses if a fire or
other insured disaster leaves you
temporarily unable to live in your home.
Often, for an
additional fee, you can select optional
homeowners insurance coverage, including:
- Higher
limits of liability for property damage
or bodily injury
-
Replacement cost for personal property
-
Protection for valuables (jewelry,
watches, fur, etc.)
-
Additional coverage for electronics or
computer equipment.
To make
shopping for the right homeowners insurance
policy easier, take an inventory of what you
own to decide what level of coverage makes
you comfortable. Once you know your coverage
level, get a homeowner's insurance quote
from Palm Beach Insurance Quotes and choose
the policy that's right for you.
What about townhouses?
If you own a townhouse, you can insure it
with a homeowners insurance policy or with
an association master insurance policy,
depending on your situation. Some townhouse
associations have master policies, in which
case you should purchase a tenant homeowners
insurance policy to insure your
personal property. Other townhouse
associations do not have master policies,
which is when you should purchase a
homeowners insurance policy for your unit.
Check with your association to determine
which type of policy you should purchase for
your townhouse. Palm Beach Insurance quotes
can tailor a policy to your individual
needs.
Life
& Retirement Insurance
Term Life Insurance
Term life
insurance, sometimes called temporary
insurance, insures an individual against
death for a specific period of time. The
time period is flexible and can be
specifically tailored to an individual's
needs. An individual with a family, may want
term life insurance until his children
complete college, or until the mortgage has
been paid off, or maybe up to the age of
retirement.
Premiums are paid on the term life insurance
policy until the end of the term specified,
and then the policy expires, just like car
insurance or property insurance.
Term life insurance rates have been dropping
steadily in response to increased
competition. Term life insurance has become
a commodity, and improved access to online
life insurance quotes information, such as
at this web site, is making it even more so.
Many term life insurance policies
also include disability insurance resulting
from serious accident or illness.
Palm Beach Insurance Quotes is your best
choice for Term life insurance. We make it
possible for you to find the best values in
term life insurance. Unbiased independent
insurance agents will provide personal
service and quick response. Since we
represent most insurance companies we can
find you the best term life insurance policy
at the best price to suit your specific
needs.
Whole
Life Insurance
Whole life insurance is essentially the same
as term life insurance in terms of benefits,
with two exceptions. Whole life insurance
does not expire as long as you continue to
pay the premiums. Also, whole life insurance
is an investment vehicle. The value of the
investment, known as the "cash
value" increases over time, and can be used
as collateral when financing a loan. A
portion of the annual premium goes towards
the actual whole life insurance policy,
while the remainder is deposited in an
investment account.
Whole life insurance provides the same piece
of mind to young families or individuals
with other dependents as term life
insurance. The most important aspect of
whole life insurance is that it protects
sizeable estates from estate taxes by the
federal government which can be as high as
42% of the value of the estate. Without
whole life insurance, beneficiaries of the
estate can be forced to liquidate assets at
economically unfavorable times in order to
pay the required estate taxes.
There are many variations to whole life
insurance policies, ranging from disability
benefits, to the types of investment
accounts that your money can be deposited
in. It is important to talk to our
independent insurance specialists to
determine what options are available and
which of those
options best suit your individual needs. Ask
the specialists at Palm Beach Insurance
quotes which whole life insurance policy is
best for you!
Annuities
There
are 3 types of annuities; fixed, indexed,
and variable. There are common benefits to
all types of annuities, namely:
- Safety -
All annuities are backed by A+ insurers
- Tax
Deferral - Asset growth is tax exempt
- High
Yield - rates on annuities are higher
than rates on CD's
- Life
Insurance - Many annuities provide death
benefits
-
Liquidity - annuities provide for
flexible withdrawals
-
Unlimited Contributions - unlike 401k's
-
Inheritance - Assets can be passed on
probate free
- Lifetime
Option - Benefits continue for the
remainder of your life
Annuities
are retirement savings vehicles much
like a 401(k) and should not be invested
for the short-term. Because annuities
aren't as liquid as mutual funds or
money market accounts, you should only
invest nest-egg money. The government
will charge you a 10% penalty for
withdrawing funds from
your annuity prior to age 59.5. In
addition, the insurer may also charge
fees for early withdrawal of funds.
The different types of annuities have
different features. The specialists at
Palm Beach Insurance Quotes can explain
the differences and help you select the
type of annuity that is best for you, or
if an annuity is the best type of
investment vehicle for you.
