Life Insurance
Life insurance coverage is a critical component of planning for the future. This coverage can offer financial protection to your loved ones in the event of your death. Balancing cost and coverage can be difficult – meeting with a qualified life insurance professional is the first step.
Primary Purposes of Life Insurance
- Income Replacement: If you pass away, life insurance can replace your income to help your family maintain their lifestyle.
- Debt Coverage: It can help pay off debts like a mortgage, car loans, or credit cards so your family isn’t burdened.
- Funeral Expenses: It can cover funeral and burial costs, which can be quite expensive.
- Education Costs: It can help fund your children’s education.
- Estate Planning: For larger estates, life insurance can help cover estate taxes or be part of a wealth transfer strategy.
Types of Life Insurance
- Term insurance is designed to meet temporary needs. It provides protection for a specific period of time, generally ranging from 10 to 30 years, and pays a benefit only if the insured dies during the specified term. This is typically the most affordable option.
- Permanent insurance provides lifelong protection as long as premiums are paid. These policies build a tax-deferred savings component you can use during your lifetime. This option is best for individuals wishing to leave an inheritance to loved ones, who have life-long dependents (such as children with special needs), or those wishing to use the cash value for supplemental retirement income. This is a more complex option and comes with a higher premium.
Health and Accident Insurance
Individual Health and Accident serves a wide range of purposes: coverage can help bridge gaps in coverage, cover you in the event of a life change, or supplement what you receive from your employer.
Individual Health Insurance
This type of insurance helps cover the cost of medical care, including:
- Doctor visits
- Hospital stays
- Prescription medications
- Preventive care
- Surgery and treatments for illnesses or chronic conditions
It’s designed to help you manage the cost of healthcare and is often purchased by people who don’t have access to employer-sponsored health insurance or government programs like Medicare or Medicaid.
Individual Accident Insurance
This is a supplemental insurance that provides cash benefits if you're injured in an accident. It’s meant to help cover unexpected costs that your regular health insurance might not fully pay for, such as:
- Ambulance services
- Emergency room visits
- Physical therapy
- Lost wages
- Out-of-pocket medical expenses
- Childcare or household help during recovery
Accident insurance pays a lump sum directly to you, regardless of what your health insurance covers. It’s especially useful for people with high-deductible health plans or those in high-risk jobs or activities.
