Long-Term Care Insurance Trade Group Campaign Encourages Employee Education

PRLog (Press Release) - Aug 09, 2011 - A national awareness campaign launched by the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance will target individuals eligible for long-term care insurance benefits available through their employer or trade associations.

"More employers are offering long-term care insurance as a benefit to employees, family members and even retirees," explains Jesse Slome, executive director of the national producer trade group.  "Conventional wisdom says that group insurance policies cost less than a policy you could purchase on your own but that is not always true for long-term care insurance."

According the the Association recommendations, with employer-offered long-term care insurance there are important factors consumers need to evaluate.  "By doing careful comparison shopping, you might find you are able to get equal or even better coverage for less money," Slome acknowledges.  "A 55-year old couple could pay 25 percent less according to some current analysis."

Over eight million Americans have long-term care insurance purchased either on an individual basis or through a group plan according to AALTCI's 2011 Long-Term Care Insurance Sourcebook.  "Employers offering the coverage, typically on a voluntary basis, have been doing great work at expanding awareness for the importance of planning," Slome adds.  "They are making coverage available to millions and offer coverage to many who might never health qualify for traditional individual long-term care insurance policy."

As part of the awareness campaign, the Association launched a new online guide for consumers at http://www.aaltci.org/compare.  "We want to encourage anyone who is 50 or older to give serious consideration to planning for the risk of needing long-term care," Slome concludes.  "If you plan to live a long life, into your 80s, 90s or even longer, you had better have a plan in place."

MSL Group diversifies to offer vehicle solutions

MSL Group Headquarters, Cheadle, Cheshire UKPRLog (Press Release) – Jul 28, 2011 – Managed in association with sister company MSL Vehicle Rental, the new offering branded MSL Vehicle Solutions includes short and long-term vehicle rental packages for small and medium-sized businesses and supports employee cash-for-car schemes.

MSL said the launch of the vehicle rental and management service was driven by the needs of businesses to control their costs and meet environmental targets by selecting vehicles with low emissions for company use.

MSL Head of Sales Richard Bewes explained: "We recognised that businesses were increasingly sourcing lower-emission vehicles to realise a number of benefits. These included greater tax breaks, lower running costs and or course, a reduced environmental impact - often a key component of a business's response to corporate social responsibility.”

"We are in a unique position within the Group whereby we can provide vehicle acquisition and disposal, manage depreciation, funding and ongoing repair and maintenance. This leaves business-owners free to focus on core activity."

Business and personal long-term vehicle rental is becoming one of the most common methods of vehicle financing for businesses and those employees who are eligible for company-run cash-for-car programmes.

MSL is able to provide a complete service for brokers due to having trading relationships with a broad range of manufacturers and dealerships, enabling it to source most types of low-emission vehicles. In addition, MSL is launching a fleet management service and offers a service delivery desk, offering help and advice for clients.

MSL’s claims handling services offers all aspects of the end-to-end claims process including first notification of loss, provision of hire cars where required and offering drivers and passengers personal injury claims assistance.

The launch of MSL Vehicle Solutions is part of a wider strategy at MSL, which aims to broaden the offering for brokers and their SME clients. MSL Group represents greater diversification of services complementing the existing MSL LE product range and extending the relationship with clients.

The company plans to launch new legal expenses produces and service products for brokers over the second half of the year.

Medical Group Recommends More Frequent Mammograms To Reduce Breast Cancer Deaths

PRLog (Press Release) – Jul 21, 2011 – The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists issued an update to their breast screening guidelines that they report could reduce the number of deaths caused by breast cancer, especially in young women.

According to the American Association for Critical Illness Insurance some 1.5 million Americans will be diagnosed with cancer this year.  "Breast cancer is the leading cancer among women," explains Association director Jesse Slome "and anything that could help identify cancer earlier will save more lives and we fully support the recommendation."

The new recommendation recommends mammography screenings be offered to women annually beginning at age 40.   The preior guidelines recommended mammograms every one to two years, beginning at age 40, and then annually beginning at age 50.

The recommendation has reignited a debate about the most appropriate ages and frequency for breast cancer screening.   The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists now believes annual testing will save more lives by catching cancers sooner. The association of gynecologists shifted away from its earlier wording suggesting that women “should have screening mammography’’ to a tone that simply advises doctors to offer it to patients.

That recommendation comes in marked contrast to advice issued 20 months ago by the US Preventive Services Task Force, a government-appointed independent panel that created a furor when it stopped recommending routine mammograms for women in their 40s after determining the small benefits of screening at that age might not outweigh the harm from finding abnormalities that turn out to be benign.

The new Association recommendation says deciding to have a mammogram is ultimately up to each woman, saying women 40 and older should be offered the screening annually.  “Our thinking was that 40,000 women in their 40s are diagnosed every year with breast cancer and that 20 percent of these women who are diagnosed will ultimately die from the disease,’’ said Dr. Jennifer Griffin, an obstetrician-gynecologist at the University of Nebraska Medical Center and lead author of the new recommendations.

The American Cancer Society, which explicitly recommends yearly mammograms starting at 40, reports that most of the benefits of screening mammography are achieved by starting at age 50 and continuing to have screening every two years until age 75. That is because breast cancers become more common as women age, which means screening has the potential to save more lives for those in their 60s.

According to data from the critical illness insurance association http://www.criticalillnessinsuranceinfo.org without screening, 30 out of 1,000 US women are expected to die of breast cancer. But that drops to 23 out of 1,000 if women undergo screening every other year from age 50 to 75. Beginning screening every other year at 40 saves one additional life per 1,000 women screened.
