A Primer On Finding & Selecting Medical Insurance

Tuesday, August 30th, 2005

At one time, only a few such as the self employed really had
to know much about selecting medical insurance because for
many years, the majority of the working population was
working in “employee” status and Medical Insurance was a
company benefit, and one that had very few choices involved.

Today that benefit is either disappearing or being offered
with choices ranging from family plan to PPO to HMO to no
participation choices also include the amount of payroll
deduction based on plan choice, and it s a complex situation
to decide.. does one opt for the plan with a $500

Classic Car Insurance For Students

Monday, August 29th, 2005

Students owning cars face the issue of keeping their car insured, as it is mandatory for any car owner in the US to carry insurance. Many students are listed as dependants in the insurance policies of their parents. However, some insurance companies insist on removal of a student?s name from the parent?s policy, particularly, when the policyholder has signed a waiver of assurance that the student will not drive a vehicle. In such cases, the students face lapse in coverage, which in the long term can be an obstacle to getting car insurance. It is therefore, imperative for students to have their own insurance policies.

Many insurance companies do not insure students and the ones that do provide it quote high premiums. This is more so when the car owned by a student belongs to the category of classic cars, which are typically old and obsolete models. Some students prefer to buy classic cars due to their vintage value but find it difficult to pay for large insurance premiums on such cars.
