Frequently Asked Questions

Please contact us if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Medicare is a federal health insurance program for people who are 65 or older and some with disabilities.


Medicare has four parts:

  • Part A: Covers hospital stays, nursing facility care, hospice, and some home health care.
  • Part B: Covers doctor visits, outpatient care, preventive services, and medical supplies.
  • Part C (Medicare Advantage): Offers alternative coverage through private insurance plans.
  • Part D: Provides prescription drug coverage.


Most people who are 65 or older and have paid Medicare taxes for at least 10 years are eligible. Some under 65 with disabilities or end-stage renal disease may also qualify.


If someone will suffer financially when you transition on, you need life insurance. If you were to pass away today, life insurance would provide cash to your dependents that can help pay for your funeral and other final expenses, meet everyday living expenses, pay down the mortgage, finance longer-term goals like education and retirement, and generally maintain your family’s quality of life. Generally, cash benefits are also tax deferred, and protected from debt collectors. 


Since the amount of insurance you need depends on your specific circumstances, there’s no simple formula to help determine the amount that’s right for you. That said, when you consider all the things that life insurance proceeds need to fund and how long the money will be needed, you begin to realize that your true need for coverage is often 10 or 15 times your gross income, sometimes more.


It’s impossible to say because the kind that’s right for you depends on your unique circumstances and financial goals. But generally speaking, term offers the greatest coverage for the lowest initial premium and is a great solution for people with temporary needs or a limited budget. Permanent insurance may make more sense if you anticipate a need for lifelong protection and like the option of accumulating tax-deferred cash values. Also, it doesn’t have to be either one or the other. Oftentimes, a combination of term and permanent insurance is the right answer.


There are several key considerations:


  • Always name a “contingent,” or secondary, beneficiary, just in case you outlive your first beneficiary. 
  • Select a specific beneficiary, rather than having the proceeds of your life insurance paid to your estate. One of the great advantages of life insurance is that it can be paid to your family immediately. If it is payable to your estate, however, it will have to go through probate with the rest of your assets.
  • Be very specific in wording beneficiary designations. Saying “wife of the insured” could result in an ex-spouse getting the proceeds. Naming specific children may exclude those born later. Changing the beneficiary designation is easy, but you have to remember to do it.


Sure, provided there is an insurable interest relationship and with the insured’s consent. Insurable interest is a reason to buy life insurance on someone else because you could undergo a financial disaster if they die. A relationship can be:


  1. Husbands, wives, or children
  2. A business owner can buy life insurance on their key employees
  3. Creditors are allowed to take a policy on their borrowe


Key Person Life Insurance is protection a business owner can purchase on key employees to cover premature death. A key employee is a valuable asset to a company because he/she holds a special talent or skill that is hard to replace. For instance, if you own a tech company and have a highly skilled developer whose death would essentially cause your business to diminish overnight, you may consider key person life insurance.
