SPORTS INSURANCE

 Simon Bukai Platinum Quality Author

Youth sports medical insurance is really not very new, yet it has not been around for a very long time. Over the recent years, there has been resurgence within the various schools and the medical community to work together for the improvement of all students participating in any type of sports activity.
Individual health insurance coverage has become very expensive over the years to the point where most school facilities who have active sports activities demanded a group insurance to cover all school age children while participating in a school sponsored sports activity. Some of what this group health insurance for school sports activity now expands to is listed below.
1. Coverage for sports liability insurance
2. Coverage for sports equipment insurance
3. Coverage for sports injuries through an accidental medical insurance policy
4. Coverage for sports directors and officials
5. Coverage for sports crimes and theft of equipment
It is important for the parents to research the type of affordable health insurance their school system offers for protection for the active sports minded child because each school has its own variable health insurance policy on record. The vast majority of the schools will provide coverage for the following activities.
1. Baseball, softball, and basketball
2. Football, golf teams, hockey, and soccer
3. Swimming, tennis, and track and field
4. Volleyball, and wrestling
Any school sport activity not listed above will require research for additional coverage. The average medical health insurance plan provides one million dollars of liability protection per individual, per occurrence. There is also an additional two million dollars worth of coverage in compliance with outside school games and traveling per person.
We are all aware that peace of mind is worth its weight in gold and through an affordable health insurance group policy through your child or children's school system it will be worth considering. The necessary forms that need to be filled out are not complicated. These forms will only take a few minutes at best to complete and submit. This is a very simple process that will add to the overall enjoyment of the sport your child or children choose to participate.
Now if and when your child sustains an injury while participating in a given school sport they will receive immediate attention. The parent's health care expenses to insure the full recovery of the child will be minimal at best and the family and school can continue as they always have in the past.

DISABILITY INSURANCE

T. Johnston Platinum Quality Author

Most of us have never consider the ramifications of being disabled and most of us have never given serious thought to owning long term disability insurance, but we should and here is why. There are very good reasons to own it other than just giving people like me commissions and the insurance companies' profits.
The three best are:
1) This kind of coverage will prevent the total destruction of your assets and nest egg
2) The money you receive is tax free
3) There is a 50% chance you will need these benefits before you turn 65
When it comes to a disability if you don't have disability coverage you are rolling the dice.
A healthy 35 year old has a 50/50 chance of being disabled before age 65. I don't necessarily mean a disability like becoming a Para or Quadriplegic, but you could suffer a permanent disability that means you can no longer work or be off work just long enough to devastate you financially.
Did you know your chances of becoming disabled for 3 months or longer are higher than your chances of dying prematurely? And you have life insurance! ------- You do have life insurance--Right?
A lot of folks believe that workers compensation or government benefits will pay them should they become disabled. Workers compensation will only provide benefits if the disability is work-related, if it can be proven the disability is directly attributed to your work. You aren't covered if you are involved in a traffic collision on your way to work or you popped your knee out while playing weekend softball. The injury or illness must have happened on the job for you to collect.
There have been cases of people going to work in excruciating pain and trying to make it look like the injury happened at work simply to get coverage. These attempts always end in failure with the person trying to get it in serious trouble with their employer as well as having a disability.
Canada Pension Plan (CPP) does pay disability benefits until age 65, but only if the disability is prolonged and severe. What most would consider permanent. A similar situation exists in the United States with social security benefits.
One of the major reasons for bankruptcy is job loss and often that job loss is caused by a disability. This holds especially true for self-employed entrepreneurial types. A disability that will not allow you to work doesn't have to be permanent to destroy you financially.
Think about this--if you were disabled permanently and you had long term disability insurance your benefits are tax free and guaranteed to age 65 (Caveat-if you purchased a - "to age 65 policy").
And remember a disability doesn't necessarily mean your life will be shortened-some disabled folks live well into their nineties..

BEST IPHONE INSURANCE

Jackson Sharp

Can you picture whats its like waking up on a Sunday morning with a splitting headache from the night before, and slowly reaching for the iPhone which is not actually there. The penny drops, it was left in the back of a cab the night before and now you have no contacts, no music and no method of communication. It gets worse - it dawns on you that you didn't get round to organising iPhone insurance for your phone because the high street providers were way too expensive. This is an all to familiar scenario people, it has happened to me. Don't let it happen to you. Read on closely for the best iPhone insurance loopholes and tips going in today's market.
Why have I got an issue with the high street providers? Because they charge £15 per month + VAT for their product which equates to almost half of my monthly tariff! Let me explain to you how you can cut costs dramatically.
BEST iPHONE INSURANCE TIPS - 3 WELL GUARDED SECRETS
1. Search the internet for an independent insurance company - A simple search for 'best iPhone insurance' yielded over 85,000 results. Folks, there are plenty of great products out there which will offer up to a 50% saving on the high street provider. And they are not hard to find either. Make sure that the insurance product offers you everything that you need, as well as the option to break the contract if you are not happy. There is no point being tied in for 12 months! To me this is the best iPhone insurance option, as you know exactly what you get.
2. Who has ever heard of your bank helping you out? - That's right guys, if you are with the right bank, they will actually insure your iPhone for free! Lloyds TSB do offer a premium bank account which is available to most long standing customers, and the good thing is there is no monthly charge either. Be prepared to fill in quite a bit of paperwork though when you actually need to make a claim, and don't expect to get a new phone within 24 hours. You also need to check how much you are actually covered for, as the latest iPhones are in excess of £500 new.
3. Home insurance? Who would have thought! - Yep, another brilliant loophole in the system which the big shots will not want you to know. If you are a home owner, you will have contents insurance. And within this, there will be a category called 'personal belongings' which will allow you to protect these items inside and outside of your house. A good example would be a diamond engagement ring. You can add your phone to this list for a nominal fee per month (sometimes its zip), but just be aware that they will probably have a maximum amount for an mobile phone protection which is unlikely to be the full £500.
So there you have it folks... A few of my best iPhone insurance loopholes for you to exploit heavily! Please do, it would make me feel so much better!
In all honesty though, I would advise going with an independent company, mainly because its hassle free, fast and offers the best value for money. The most impressive product researched was found athttp://www.insureit.2u.co.uk/iPhoneInsurance/.
I have also developed a Best iPhone Insurance website which will go into much more detail than what I have written about here. Check out a few more fantastic, free tips!

OVERSEAS MEDICAL INSURANCE

Josh Harrison

When you are away from home on holiday, or on a business trip, the last thing in the world you want to happen is to suddenly become ill. There's something about being sick that makes you long for the familiarity of home and your own bed instead of the strange one in a rather impersonal hotel room. And no one wants to even think about having to make an emergency visit to a hospital while you are travelling. Unfortunately, these things happen all too frequently. Play it safe and make sure you have travel and overseas medical insurance away from home so that you'll have one less thing to worry about during your trip.
What can having travel medical insurance when you are abroad do for you? If you get sick and have a medical emergency while you are on holiday, subject to the policy terms and conditions, travel medical insurance will reimburse you for any money that you spend on medical expenses up to a preset amount, and will pay for a friend or relative to fly in and accompany you home if you are too sick to travel alone. The policy would also pay in the event that you have to make an emergency evacuation, and if you should die while on holiday, travel medical insurance will pay up to a preset amount to send your remains back to your home. Ambulance expenses and all hospital costs are also paid by medical insurance whilst overseas.
All travel insurance policies are not alike, and will reimburse the policy holder different amounts. If you are thinking that you might have need of travel medical insurance, you should definitely take the time to do some research online and find a company who offers a travel insurance policy that contains the coverage you are seeking. You will be able to compare quotes and choose the policy that is the most cost effective for you.
There are two main types of travel medical insurance that you can use whilst overseas. One is often called standard travel medical insurance, and the other is called annual multi-trip travel medical insurance. Standard travel medical insurance is for people who are planning on taking a one off holiday or journey. Annual multi-trip travel medical insurance is for people who are planning to travel more than once during a one year period.
Medical costs are skyrocketing all over the world. If you should become ill while travelling, you could be looking at a huge medical bill unless you have prepared ahead of time and have overseas medical insurance away from home.
Medical insurance away from home will give you peace of mind while you are travelling. It is well worth the small amount it costs to get a policy started!

FLOOD INSURANCE

 John F Day

There are three types of flood insurance that everyone needs to be aware of. While it is not limited to these definitions, these are what you find in most policies. There is the exception of some insurance companies not including any kind of flood insurance, so read carefully. Better yet, if you want to educate yourself about flood insurance, read on!
There are three types of flooding, namely flash flooding, river flooding and coastal flooding.
The most common type of flooding is flash flooding. This type of flooding occurs due to heavy rain fall in the situated area and swells up very quickly. However, it is also quick to disperse which is a good thing. The only problem is because the water comes up so quickly, it may not be possible for individuals to be evacuated from the prone area. Being the most common because flash flooding can occur anywhere, insurance for this kind of flooding should be found in your insurance policy and if not, consider taking it on.
The next type of flooding definition is river flooding. While this may seem self-explanatory, river flooding is cause by the overflowing of rivers. Unlike flash flooding which disappears quickly, river flooding can take days, even weeks to return to normal levels. A lot of insurance policies do not include this type of cover and it is up to you to find out if you are covered because this kind of flooding is likely to do the most damage. This issue should be pressed even further if you live near running water.
The final type of flooding is coastal flooding. This sort of flooding occurs around the coast line where cyclones are present and strong wind and storm activity. This is defiantly something to consider if you live along the beach or near sea water as the damage can be tremendous, and be caused in a very short period of time. It is almost guaranteed your insurance policy will not cover this unless taken out as an extra premium so please read up on your insurance company's policy and make sure you are covered.
So, when you read your insurance policy and find out that you are covered for flooding, it is worth doing due diligence and finding out what kind of flooding you are covered for. Ring up your insurance company and find out. If they don't offer the cover you are after, keep looking because when the crunch time comes, you can bet these companies will do everything they can to avoid paying out, thus rendering your insurance useless. Remember, read actively and use common sense!
John is greatly concerned about the Brisbane floods and thinks those who have been spared check over their insurance policies. He in particular is interested in a used honda element as they are a great car. He believes honda insurance should be used when insuring anything!

umbrella insurance

 Angela DoeringUmbrella insurance provides blanket liability protection for individuals and their assets. These policies go above and beyond the limits of a primary auto and home insurance policy, and also fill-in the gaps in those policies. The high limits of an Umbrella policy protect an individual in the event of a large dollar amount claim. Most Umbrella plans begin at one million dollars in coverage, but they can be purchased with much higher coverage limits.
For instance, an umbrella policy would pay out in the event of auto accident in which someone was severely injured or killed. In the event of a severe traffic related injury, liability payouts in the court system have been as high as millions of dollars. With most people only carrying $100,000 per person and $300,000 per accident liability limits, its easy to see how necessary an umbrella policy is to one's financial health. Without that coverage, the at-fault party is responsible for the remainder of the payout after the policies coverage limits have been exhausted. So, if you cause an accident that results in $800, 000 in damages to one person, and only carry liability limits of $100,000 per person and $300,000 per accident, you will be stuck paying $700,000 of the bill.
The need for umbrella coverage is large, although largely unfamiliar to many people. Most people who have a net worth under $500,000 assume they do not need such a high liability limit. What most of these people don't realize is that, in the event of a large dollar amount claims, not only can real property be taken, but future earnings can also be garnished to pay for the remainder of the bill after the insurance limits have been exhausted. This makes Umbrella coverage a crucial coverage for any wage earner to carry.
The cost for this type of coverage is relatively low. The premium depends on the risk, of course, but the average annual cost for one million dollars in coverage is $200-300. The coverage amount of liability blankets the coverage on your existing policy (i.e. if you had $500,000 liability limit on your home and a one million dollar umbrella policy, you would have coverage up to $1.5 million). Umbrella insurance can also fill in the gaps of liability coverage where your home or auto policies may not provide coverage. For instance, umbrella policy can provide coverage in the event of libel, false arrest, slander, or invasion of privacy. In this sue happy world we live in, many are finding that it is better to have ample coverage than try to save a few dollars.

travel insurance

William Swann

Can you think of your possible reaction when you take a trip down the hills of Hungary and then suddenly something strikes you from the rear without warning? Remember that being healthy doesn't necessarily mean that you are risk free. Combining policies such as hospital, cancellation, baggage, medical, and air flight accident insurance are common for most travelers.
Some people like to take risky trips once in a while and for these kinds of vacations it is important for them to get good advice when it comes to what type of travel insurance to buy. Assistance will be provided by the Manitoba Health Services Commission if the accident happens in Canada. Of course you will get money from your coverage plan but they will match the amount. Your daily coverage will amount to $467 if you stay in a hospital outside of Canada, a 300 bed hospital. If it is not enough, the traveler shoulders the excess. This is why you need hospital insurance.
Travelers should always have supplementary insurance when they go out of the country according to the assistant executive director of MHSC. It's hard to know what the costs for medical care or hospital confinement would be in another country before you go. Canada's medical expenses costing a lot more than those in other locations except for the United States are what you might end up assuming.
Not only does the Silver Non Preferred Plan come with a deductible but it provides seniors with unlimited protection for a low price of $42.50 for 21 days. There was a commercial and travel accounts representative for a travel agency who mentioned that $20 is how much a three week medical policy will cost for a non senior and one for 180 days will cost $520. People over 60 spend more on policies if they last longer than 60 days.
In terms of insurance, comprehensive ones are really popular among people. One package would cost $85 for an all inclusive 21 day policy for a trip valued at $2,000. When you need protection from the MHSC, it is important that you inform them for your three month long or more trip. Your coverage support will be legitimate as they will provide you with an out of province certificate for your out of the country trip. It is the MHSC that is a separate entity when it comes to any policies or regulations stated by insurance companies.
You should always have cancellation insurance if you need to be somewhere just before your trip leaves. If a family member falls ill and you need to cancel a trip then this is the kind of policy that you need. Here, baggage insurance is also important.
Homeowners' insurance normally comes with personal property coverage and this can cover you for any losses. Sometimes, they exclude coverage to a certain degree for any camera equipment. Like baggage insurance, you may find flight insurance covered in one of your other purchases. When you purchase airline tickets and such, use your credit card to get travel accident and flight insurance from the company.

DENTAL INSURANCE

Lindsey Jenkins

Dental check ups, teeth cleaning, root canals, tooth extractions and teeth fillings are some of the dental care and treatments that one needs to go through at one point in our life. It could be monthly, quarterly or even annually depending on the kind of care and treatment needed. The dental care and treatment mentioned are very expensive now days but one cannot disregard the fact that we need this to take good care of out dental requirements and problems.

HOUSE INSURANCE

 Chimezirim Chinecherem Odimba 

Who else wants a dirt cheap house insurance quote that does NOT mean putting up with inadequate coverage? Here are things that will help you save and still enjoy the best coverage for you...
It is very important that you know what your coverage needs are. This will mean getting better educated in coverage types and who they are for. Getting too much coverage is plain waste of hard-earned cash. On the other hand, getting insufficient coverage is definitely too expensive for anyone in their right mind -- The whole purpose of being insured is then defeated.
When you are sure of what you need, explore ways of getting your needs met without paying top price. For example, did you know that you'll save a lot more and still enjoy superior coverage if you cut down the liability part of your home insurance policy to the barest minimum and then get an umbrella policy instead?
Furthermore, do you know that the liability coverage you get from an umbrella policy could also help you save across other policies? Please, do discuss your options on this with your agent.
Also, take note that the following will help you save much...
1. Raising your deductible.
2. Maintaining an excellent credit.
3. Having sprinklers in your home.
4. Fitting alarms.
5. Having deadbolt locks on every exterior door. It also helps to have them on your windows.
6. Motion-sensitive lights that give burglars a hard time.
7. Buying a home close to a police and/or fire station.
8. Avoiding a home with a swimming pool or ensuring you take recommended safety measures.
9. Ensuring there's NO smoker in your home.
10. Getting and comparing home or house insurance quotes from a wide range of insurers. Now don't treat this lightly. It take only a few minutes but could save you several hundreds. And, don't forget: Quotes have no obligations attached. This means that you are NOT bound to do business with a company or agent because you received quotes from them.
Take advantage of quotes sites for your comparison shopping -- It's faster, more convenient and much more effective than attempting to make calls. Just make sure you get quotes from A rated companies. Lower rates must NOT compromise coverage quality.
