Dental Discount Cards vs Dental Insurance - Which Is The Best Deal?

Friday, October 31st, 2003

The first question that you may want to ask here is “what exactly are dental discount cards?” Well, dental discount cards or discount dental cards, as some people call them, are an alternative dental plan other than traditional dental insurance. The card allows you to receive substantial discounts off of the regular cost of dental care. You simply join one of these plans, receive your card within one to three business days and then you can visit any dentist within the network of the plan. You can receive savings of anywhere from 10-60%, depending on the plan.

You re probably wondering how this is a benefit to you, especially if it isn t dental insurance. Am I right? Let me do a brief comparison of the two, after which, I ll direct you to where you can get all of your questions answered. Fair enough? All right then.

Dental insurance used to be relatively easy to get and was quite affordable. Our parents had the advantage of working a job for 20-30 years, getting retirement pension (more...)

Coverage That Keeps Your Business Healthy In Texas

Friday, October 31st, 2003

As with many other things, when it comes to buying group health insurance, there is strength in numbers. And big numbers have traditionally gotten the best deals. Currently, a large number of individuals in Dallas, Houston and throughout Texas obtain coverage through their employers. Many of those employers are large companies with strong-arm power at the insurance bargaining table. If you re a small-business owner, however, there is no reason to feel left out.

The Small-Group Market

Small-group refers to the number of employees in a given company. It can be as many as 100, but is most often two to 50. In this market, health insurance prices have traditionally been based on two factors:

? Projected costs of medical services in a given geographic area

? Projected utilization of services

Projected costs can vary dramatically from area to area based on local medical practices, local prices, and whatever price discounts the insurance company has been able to (more...)

Thursday, October 30th, 2003

Knowing you have the right commercial insurance cover you can safely sleep in bed at night. You will know your business won t go under because someone stole you van with all your tools in the back. It s great as a business owner, knowing if one of your drivers crashes the van a replacement van will be delivered to you, keeping your business ticking over. When you breakdown your just one phone call away and your van is recovered anywhere in the UK and your back in business ASAP with a replacement van.

Some standard comprehensive van insurance policy provides no cover for any loss of van contents. You can upgrade your policy, so your tools do get replaced if they are stolen. Ask when you get a quote or ask your existing insurance company. Just a little Tip: — Do not cut corners on naming drivers to your policy to try saving money on insurance. As an accident about an uncovered driver is going to cost you a hundred times more than you saved on your insurance policy, I can assure you.

Homeowners Insurance Coverage

Wednesday, October 29th, 2003

Most homeowner s insurance policies have very limited coverage. For other types of coverage, a homeowner needs to purchase additional types of insurance. Typically, claims due to disasters such as earthquakes, floods, war, and other “Acts of God” are not included in a typical homeowner s insurance policy. For these types of disasters, special insurance can be purchased in order to be covered, including flood insurance and earthquake insurance.

The basic insurance policy generally has coverage that reimburses you for the cost to rebuild or repair your home if destroyed or damaged through no fault of your own. The items inside the home are also part of the coverage included in basic homeowner s insurance. If your home is burglarized and your property is stolen, your insurance policy usually reimburses you for the value of the lost items.

Most of the homeowner s insurance policies are long-term contracts for a fixed period of time. If you do not wish to get into a long-term co (more...)

Wednesday, October 29th, 2003

No-one said it would be easy but giving up smoking is really worthwhile and it s a perfectly achievable aim. Why not join the band of ex-smokers, starting from today? If are you now a reformed smoker, we have some even better news for you.

You can expect more than increased life expectancy and a vast improvement in your well-being if you quit smoking. The saving in your life insurance premiums will be noticeable too. Whilst it s true that you might have to wait a little while before this last saving is within your grasp, in the meantime your savings on cigarettes can make quite a difference to your pocket.

It s quite usual to find that insurance companies require you to have had a five year smoke-free period. Technically they say “not smoked or used nicotine products”.

There are, however, some insurers who ll reward you for your good behaviour by reducing the non-smoking period to just 12 months. If you can, hand on heart, say that you ve refrained from smoking for a whol (more...)
