LIFE INSURANCE SUPPLEMENTS SOCIAL SECURITY BY $1.5 TRILLION OVER NINE YEARS NEW YORK, September 15, 2020 Between 2010 and 2018, the U.S. life insurance industry distributed nearly $1.5 trillion in claims and benefits to policyholders, an amount equal to 19 percent of all Social Security payments made over that same period, according to a study released today.

While term life insurance may not necessarily be “better” than whole life insurance, term is definitely the right choice of coverage in most situations. Term life insurance is coverage that lasts for a specific period of time. Permanent coverage, whole life being the most well-known, lasts your entire life. Because the main goal of life insurance is to protect your loved ones during their most financially-vulnerable years, a life insurance product that you only pay for during a specific period of time makes the most sense—in most cases.

What is term insurance In our country, term insurance is a type of insurance that gives you cover for a specific period of time. Usually, you purchase it at a relatively affordable amount and agree to a short validity. That’s why it’s called by its name, term being the length of time that you can enjoy the coverage. When it’s up, you may choose to renew it again. Term insurance is always compared with whole life insurance. The former insures you for a period, usually for a year. Whole life insurance on the other hand gives you cover for an entire lifespan, somewhere between 88 years to 100 years. If you look at these two products from this basis alone, you might say that...

States should protect consumers from a new Trump Administration rule that expands health reimbursement arrangements (HRAs) — which, as we’ve explained, could raise individual market premiums and cause confusion and disruption for people with employer plans — by blocking or restricting substandard “short-term” health plans. Short-term health plans, which last up to a year, were already set to proliferate under an earlier Trump Administration rule of last year. That’s a big problem because short-term plans don’t have to, and often don’t, cover all of the Affordable Care Act’s (ACA) essential health benefits, such as maternity and mental health care, substance use disorder treatment, and...
