What is a PPO plan?

A PPO (Preferred Provider Organization) plan is a health plan where favored service providers, such as doctors and hospitals, have a contract with an insurance company or a health plan to offer service for their policyholders.

Am I required to get Homeowners Insurance for my home?

No, you are not required by law to get Homeowners Insurance to cover your home.

Did You Know?    
 
 
Generally, you must report as income any amount you receive for your disability through an accident or health insurance plan paid for by your employer.
If both you and your employer have paid the premiums for the plan, only the amount you receive for your disability that is due to your employer's payments is reported as income. If you pay the entire cost of a health or accident insurance plan, do not include any amounts you receive for your disability as income on your tax return. If you pay the premiums of a health or accident insurance plan through a cafeteria plan, and the amount of the premium was not included as taxable income to you; the premiums are considered paid by your employer, and the disability benefits are fully taxable.
