M.J.F. Provides Business Owners Insurance Premium Savings

In the month of March M.J.F. provided business owners with some much needed relief on insurance premiums. Our agency has no limits on the size and types of businesses we can write. Through our membership in the S.I.A.A. we were able to provide top rated carriers quotes to our insureds and provide substantial savings to the business owners while maintaining or raising their liability limits.

Our pay as you go workers compensation plans have also been a huge success. These plans allow you to start with a much lower deposit and pay on actual payroll and not estimated. This means their is no audit needed at year end because you cannot overpay or underpay your premium. In most cases we also provided the payroll services at little or no cost to the business owner and were better able to manage the pay as you go workers compensation program.

M.J.F. can provide a business insurance review. Once we collect the relative data to underwrite we can provide competitive quotes to help you potentially reduce your premiums without sacraficing coverages. We can be reached on the web at www.mjfinsuranceagency.com or toll free at 866-983-8726.

We can write in NY,NJ,CT,PA,FL & SC

Protect Your Most Important Assett!

If you are like most people they are concerned about protecting their assetts, you usually want to protect your home, cars and other valuable assetts. What most people negect to realize is that the most important assett is your income or ability to earn and maintaina style of living you have become accustomed too.

Therefore, the most important policy you should own is a disability policy. This will provide you with a substantial amount of replacement income in case you are unable to work due to illness or injury. Not having this coverage can be a financial disaster if not in place when an illness or injury prevents you from working.

Business Succession Planning For The Business Owner

Every business owner faces risk! Therefore there are several key questions that need to be answered if you own your own business.

Do you have a properly designed Buy-Sell Agreement. In other words have you put in place an agreement if one of the partners or co-owners was to leave due to death,disability or retirement. If you do then how is it being funded at this time? If not it might be wise to visit an attorney to formulate the agreement and then decide how it will be funded. Life insurance can provide a buyout fund when an event takes place.

Are there any business loans and are they personally guarunteed?

Most business loans require a personal guaruntee.These loans should also be backed with a life insurance policy and or a disability to cover the outstanding debt to have the peace of mind that the loan will be paid in the event of an event of death or disability.

Do you have enough funds set aside for the business to pay you a salary if you are beset by a prolonged illness and what will your absence mean to the business. Are you the key employee? Can you afford to find a replacement?

Who are the employees that you rely on or are the most valuable to your business? Can your business continue to maintain its current level of production or would it suffer without these employees?

Have you considered being what those employees mean to your business and considered additional incentives to retain their services? They may be the key the the business succeeding if you are unable to work or in the event of death allowing your family to continue managing the business because of your advanced planning.

If you have not prepared for any of these situations you may want to think about what it means to you and your family if your not prepared. You can continue your business and provide you and your family the ability to maintain your current lifestyle and independence.

Talk to your independent agent to set up your business succession plan today.

Changing Auto Insurance Companies?

Changing Auto Insurance Companies May be Easier Than you Think!

There are many reasons why you may choose to change your auto insurance coverage to another company. Perhaps you’ve found another company that offers you the same amount of coverage for considerably less money. You might have changed jobs and are eligible for a group discount through another insurer, or maybe you’re unhappy with the service that your present company provides. With the growth of the internet and quote comparison sites, investigating your options has never been easier!

Why change to a new Auto insurance carrier?

You need to regularly review your auto insurance coverage to make sure that you are receiving the best insurance value for your money. You will discover that it pays to shop around. In some states, premiums for identical policies vary widely among different auto insurance companies. The reasons for this price variation can be very complicated, but they boil down to a company's claims experience with policyholders in a coverage group (e.g. people of similar age, number of accidents, type of vehicle). For example, if a large number of people in a coverage group files claims during a given year, their rates will likely rise. When this happens, better discounts and lower overall premiums may be available at other insurance companies. When you decide to switch your auto insurance to another company, you’ll find that it's fairly easy to do so.

How to cancel your old Auto Insurance policy

Generally, all you need to do to cancel your auto insurance policy is to inform your insurance company in writing, specifying the date you want the policy canceled. In some states, the new agent must notify the previous agent of the policy change. Some auto insurance companies ask the policyholder send back the actual printed policy. The insurance company will send a cancellation request form that will need to be signed and returned. Examine the form carefully to make sure that all information regarding the policy is correct. If the form is not received within two weeks of sending the letter, call the agent or company immediately to check on the status of the cancellation. Don't just walk away from the old policy without formally canceling it. Each state requires that auto Insurance policies be cancelled with notice, thus the insurance company might assume one wished to continue the coverage, and it might eventually terminate the policy for failure to pay premiums and report the lack of coverage to the state Department of Motor Vehicles. This can hurt your credit rating and ability to get a new policy.


Be sure to get a new Auto Insurance policy first

Always have a new policy in place before canceling the old auto insurance coverage. Otherwise you might have a gap in protection for a day or more! Most states require all drivers to carry a minimum level of auto insurance and most insurance companies require policyholders to present proof of new coverage before they will cancel an active policy. The new company will be able to time the beginning of the new policy to coincide with the cancellation of the prior coverage.

When to Change Auto Insurance policies
At Renewal

Renewal is a convenient time to change auto insurance policies, as you don’t have to wait for a refund from your current carrier. A renewal notice will be sent to you approximately 30 days before a new policy begins, depending on the regulations in your state. Should you decide to switch companies, you’ll need to have a new policy by the time the current policy renews. Though a company might say there is 10-30 days to get your payment in before a policy terminates, you do not have coverage until the carrier receives the payment. If you have an accident during this time period you most likely will have no coverage since the premium wasn’t paid!

Anytime:

All Auto insurance policies contain a provision allowing you to cancel your policy with proper notice at any time. In a few states auto insurance companies “short rate” the policy that means one pays a penalty for canceling before the policy renews. Most insurance companies pro-rate their policies so there is no penalty. The advantage of switching before the renewal date can save you a lot of money. For example if you have a policy that runs from Jan 15th to Aug 15th and you have an accident or ticket that will be over 36 months on March 15th. By switching Auto insurance companies on March 16th, you get a discount for having a clean driving record. Your current carrier won’t apply this discount until the policy renews on August 15th! This can save you Hundreds of dollars immediately!

How long does it take to change Auto insurance?

When you change auto insurance companies, the new agent or insurer can generally change carriers while you wait! Generally they’ll just need a copy of your current declaration page, driver’s license and down payment to get the policy issued.

The Hartford Expands Workers' Compensation Billing System Availability by Insurance & Technology

The Hartford Expands Workers' Compensation Billing System Availability by Insurance & Technology

Simple Payroll Solutions

M.J.F. offers payroll services through Simple Payroll Solutions. You may ask why does an insurance agency offer such a poduct? It is a tool we use for our new Pay As You Go Workers Compensation Product in New York and New Jersey.

You are probably asking why leave companies like A.D.P. or other well known payroll companies. The reason is we can place your workers compensation and deduct it through your payroll. The advantage is Simple Payroll Solutions does not charge a fee for your payroll service, which automatically saves you money and we only need the first month premium to bind. Most companies require large premium deposits upfront, this also creates financial leverage or liquidity for your business. Secondly, you are now paying for actual payroll and not estimated payroll. No need for an audit at year end because the premium will be accurate. No refunds due the company and no additional premium required on estimated payroll that comes up short.

Then we can review your other insurance policies to save you additional premium and make sure you are properly insured. It's a win win for the business owner all around.

Contact us today to schedule an appointment to discuss our Simple Payroll Solution product and start saving money. It's the perfect way to start off the New Year! You work hard for your money and deserve to reap the benefits. Why should you just hand over fees for unnecessary fees to another company.

Health Savings Accounts - HSA Health Insurance Plans

What is an HSA?
A Health Savings Account, or HSA combines high deductible health insurance with a tax-favored savings account, similar to a 401(k). Money in the savings account helps pay the deductible. If the deductible is met, the insurance starts paying. Money left in the savings account earns interest and is yours to keep or spend on qualified medical expenses. There is no “use it or lose it” restriction with an HSA.


What are qualified medical expenses?
HSA savings can be used to pay for many types of medical expenses beyond what is covered by your insurance plan. These expenses include dental services, vision, alternative medicine, long-term care services, prescription drug and certain over-the-counter drugs.


Who is eligible for an HSA?
Anyone who is not entitled to Medicare can accumulate tax-favored savings for healthcare needs. You must have a qualified high deductible plan to receive the benefits. The current minimum deductible amounts are $1,100 for a single and $2,200 for a family. HealthPlanOne clearly identifies plans that qualify for HSA tax savings accounts. Simply use our Refine Search tool to include only HSA’s.

There are 2 steps to setting up an HSA:
Select and apply for a qualified HSA health plan
Wait for your application to be approved
Set up an HSA tax favored savings account with your insurance carrier or our affiliate.
If you contribute money to your HSA account, your health coverage could be FREE!
Assume that you are a self-employed individual. You purchase an HSA policy and make a significant tax-free contribution. The resulting tax savings might pay for the health care premium!

It would work like this. You purchase an individual HSA policy with a $2,500 deductible for $1,400 per year. You then contribute the maximum $2,500 to your HSA account. The tax savings would be $1,380, very close to the cost of a high deductible medical policy: Annual Cost Tax Bracket Tax Savings
Insurance Premium $1,400 45% $630
HSA Contribution $2,500 30% $750
Total Savings $1,380


Even if you incur $500 health care expenses for the year, you still will have paid for the cost of the policy with tax savings and have $2000 of your savings in an tax preferred, investment account.

The example assumes you have a combined federal and state tax rate of 30% and an additional self-employed payroll tax of 15%. Tax rates will differ based on your situation.

To find out which plans qualify for HSA treatment, simply search the plans and then use our Refine Search tool to include only HSA's

Buying Health Insurance - How to Get the Best Health Insurance Plan for You

Buying health insurance is one thing, but buying the best health insurance for you can be tricky, especially when there are so many options and so many factors to consider. Before you get health insurance, you will probably want to create a health insurance comparison sheet. You can break down each plan by cost and benefit. Below are some important constituents that make up health insurance plans.

Important items to consider when buying health insurance:

The hospital and physicians that are in the network of the plan you choose.
You can start your health insurance comparison by asking yourself if you have a favorite hospital or physician. You'll want to make sure they are included in the network of any plan you consider purchasing.

Doctor visit copay.
When you get health insurance, a number that will often come into play is your plan's copay. The copay is the amount you will pay each time you visit the doctor.
Prescription benefit and copay.

Some plans do not include prescription drug benefits-you'll want to keep this in mind while you make your health insurance comparison. If coverage is included, the copay is the amount you will pay per prescription. The copay often differs depending on whether the drug is generic, preferred, or brand name. Before buying health insurance, you should calculate your current and estimated future cost of medications and determine your best value.
Annual deductible.

This is the annual amount of medical expenses that you are responsible for before your insurance begins paying. Usually, prescription drug copays mentioned above do not go towards this deductible.
Coinsurance.

Another factor you will want to consider in your health insurance comparison is the plan's coinsurance--the amount your carrier expects you to pay toward your medical expenses-typically this is 20-30% for in-network providers. The coinsurance amount is typically 20% high for out-of-network providers. The coinsurance maximum is the limit on how much coinsurance you might have to pay each year.
Out of pocket annual maximum.


Buying health insurance will always involve some amount of out of pocket maximum. The out of pocket maximum is the most you will be expected to incur annually. It is the sum of your deductible and maximum coinsurance amount.

www.mjfinsuranceagency.com

Lifetime maximum coverage.
After you get health insurance, your plan will pay out a certain amount over your lifetime. Typically this number is $1 million to $5 million. With the high cost of medical care it can be beneficial to have a higher coverage amount.

Premium.
Perhaps the most basic number to consider before buying health insurance, your premium is the amount you must pay each month for your policy. Premium is impacted by all of the attributes above. For instance, if you get a health insurance plan with a higher deductible policy, your premium will be lower, but you will have to pay more money out of pocket before your insurance kicks in.

HSA Qualified Plans.
HSA's are high deductible health plans which enable you to put money aside pre tax to pay for certain medical expenses. Most people like to weigh the costs and benefits of HSA's in their health insurance comparison.

Remember, it is one thing to get health insurance, but it is another to be sure you are purchasing the best available plan. If you have any questions about any of the above factors, a broker can walk you through each item.
