What insurance options are available for small businesses?
We offer the Chambers of Commerce Group Insurance Plan for businesses with 1+ employees, including health, dental, disability, and critical illness coverage with nationally pooled rates.
How does coordination of benefits work?
Coordination of benefits allows combining multiple insurance plans to maximize coverage. We help clients optimize claims processing across employer, spouse, and individual policies.
Can I customize my personal insurance plan?
Yes, we create tailored personal insurance solutions combining life, disability, critical illness, and long-term care coverage to match individual financial protection needs.
What happens to coverage when leaving employment?
Most group insurance plans offer conversion options within 31 days of employment termination, allowing continuation of coverage as an individual policy.
How do pre-existing conditions affect coverage?
Pre-existing conditions may require medical underwriting but shouldn't prevent coverage. We work with insurers to find solutions that address existing health conditions.
What's the difference between mortgage insurance and life insurance?
Mortgage insurance pays the lender directly, while life insurance provides flexible death benefit protection to beneficiaries for any purpose, including mortgage payments.
