From 1/1/2014 on, all individual and family health insurance plans will have these “Metallic” names whether you purchase health insurance “On Exchange” or “Off Exchange”. It gives you an easy-to-understand overview of how the plans will share the payment of your medical bills.
Health insurance companies that sell plans on the Health Insurance Marketplace can offer four types of qualified health insurance plans, including Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum. The plan you choose determines not only the premium you pay but also what portion of your health costs you pay.
To make it easier to shop for coverage, health insurance plans have standardized “metals”. The “metal” plan depends on its actuarial value, or the average percentage of health care costs the plan pays vs what the member pays. The more coverage a plan provides, the higher the monthly premium and the fancier the metal level. Gold is better than Silver. Silver is better than Bronze.
This percentage will not go on forever, there is always an “Out of Pocket Maximum” (this is your pocket, not the insurance company), so you’ll only pay your portion of the expenses until you’ve reached your out-of-pocket maximum.
You’ll want to review your “Summary of Benefits and Coverage” to find out what your deductible is, your co-insurance, your out-of-pocket maximum, along with all of the important details of what your plan covers.
Regardless of the plan you choose, it will provide all 10 essential health care benefits guaranteed to policyholders under the Affordable Care Act. The difference among the plans has to do with how much overall out-of-pocket costs you’ll pay up to your out-of-pocket maximum.
Choosing the right metal tier requires evaluating your budget and assessing current and expected health care needs. Our agents guide you in reviewing the options available across the tiers and help you determine which plan best fits your health needs and budget. We can also help you determine whether you qualify for subsidies to lower your premium.
If you own a unique, sports, or exotic car, your driving habits are probably considerably different than most drivers. It makes sense, therefore, that your auto insurance coverage should be different as well. Your auto insurance company uses a vehicle’s make, model, horsepower, size, weight and number of cylinders to classify it as a sports or exotic car.
An employer-subsidized plan is a sensible option for employees. Not only does the employer pay at least 50% of the employee’s premium, but the remaining premium is tax-free and taken directly from the employee’s pay.
If the amount of money the auto insurance company is willing to pay out does not adequately cover damages, then escalating the situation and starting a car accident lawsuit may be your only option.

The responsibility of who pays what in Nevada is contingent on who’s at-fault in an auto accident. All drivers in Nevada have an obligation to drive their automobiles safely to reduce any risks of potential accidents. In Nevada, if you are the at-fault driver (the person that caused the accident), then you are responsible to “make whole” the individual or property you hit.
A car accident can happen in the blink of an eye and witnessing one can be scary. After an auto accident, all drivers involved are required to stay at the scene where information is exchanged for auto insurance purposes. But what should you do if you witness a car wreck?
Personal items such as a tablet, wallet, or any personal valuables are not generally covered in your auto insurance policy. Those items would be covered in your homeowners/renters policy. You would have a deductible to pay for first, and then you’d need to consider the consequences of a claim on your homeowners policy.
Windshield / glass coverage pays the amount of a covered glass loss, and as an added perk, it has a low deductible. Your insurer will cover the full costs of the repairs up to your policy limit, and as long as the costs of the damages don’t exceed your coverage limit, you’ll pay only your small deductible.
