Insurance Reviews
The personal insurance contracts you have may need to be adjusted from year to year
. The life, health care, disability, automobile and homeowner's insurance that you possess may no longer do what you need them to do. Each plan should be looked at and updated as necessary.
Your life insurance needs may have changed since the last time you looked at it. You may have too much coverage. You may have too little insurance in this area. You may have the wrong kind of insurance in this area.
If you are earning more you may need to adjust the limits of the life insurance you possess. One of the more important reasons for life insurance is to replace lost income. Having too little life insurance can mean that your spouse has too little income.
If you have more obligations now than when you bought your contract you may want to update your contract. An additional child can increase your need for insurance. The converse is also true. If your children are fully grown and self sufficient, you may require less insurance coverage than you did previously.
Your need for health insurance may have changed. When is the last time you reviewed your medical insurance policy? Your health care insurance contract may have a pregnancy rider that you no longer require. Or, it may not have coverage for pregnancy and you are planning to expand your family.
Your policy's deductible may be too low or too high. You can easily pay too much by purchasing a policy with a deductible that is too low.
The limits on your policy may be lower than you need. The cost of a hospital stay goes up each year. Physicians charge more each year. Unless your policy has no caps it may fall short if you have a serious medical problem.
Disability insurance gives you an income when you are unable to work due to illness or trauma. If your income has grown, your disability insurance should also rise.
If your need for income is less than it was before, you may want to decrease your coverage. If you are able to live off of your investments now you may no longer require this coverage.
Your automobile insurance policy has probably been updated when you bought and sold automobiles. It may not have been changed to make sure that you have adequate liability limits. It may not have been updated as your cars have grown older and perhaps no longer need collision and comprehensive coverage.
Your homeowners insurance needs adjustment on a regular basis. The amount of coverage you have on your dwelling needs to equal the cost of rebuilding your home. (Not the cost of buying a similar home.) This amount changes as time passes and your contract should be adjusted.
If you have bought jewelry since you bought your homeowners contract, you may want to make sure that you have enough coverage. You may need to purchase a rider or a separate plan to cover your jewelry. The standard home insurance contract will only cover a small amount of jewelry.
Checking with other carriers to get the best rate is an important part of reviewing your insurance. Your needs change as time passes. So do the prices of the various insurance companies. Although it is more important to be sure that you have the right type and amount of insurance, it is also important that you not pay too much for it.
The only way to ensure that your insurance policies are still adequate for your needs is to review your needs and your insurance policies one by one. Having too much coverage means that you pay too much. Having too little insurance isn't good either. It means that you get smaller checks when you file claims.
