Bright and Good
Brightway Insurance has opened five new stores this month. While they are down South for now, this enterprise bears attention.
Brightway President Talman Howard claims: “We offer a turnkey business solution that helps Franchise Owners realize their dream of business ownership with the support of a national brand.” Brightway Agency Owners receive comprehensive business support including customer service, carrier relationships, marketing, accounting and technology, according to the Company. “As a result, Brightway agencies consistently outsell other insurance agencies three-to-one,” they state in a press release, adding: “Brightway franchisees make more than three times the income of individuals who are self-employed in other businesses. For top performers, the gap is six-fold. What’s more, having an insurance background is not a prerequisite to becoming a Franchise Owner with Brightway. In fact, 40 percent of the above-average performing Brightway Franchise Owners did not have prior insurance experience. “

In 2018, an estimated 1.735 million new cases of cancer will be diagnosed in the United States, according the National Cancer Institute. On top of being a devastating diagnosis, treating cancer is expensive, with the median monthly out-of-pocket cost estimated to be $703. Aflac, a cancer insurance pioneer, has launched its Aflac Cancer Protection Assurance plan. Aflac Cancer Protection Assurance provides more options to help meet the needs of policyholders through all life stages. Coverage is now offered for screening tests and surgeries performed on the basis of genetic testing results, and the wellness payout for early diagnosis is also increased. Other additional benefits include nonsurgical treatment such as immunotherapy, an annual care benefit to help manage costs with delayed effects, and surgery on a non-diseased body part. Also, every Aflac policyholder can explore My Cancer Circle, an on-line tool that helps caregivers coordinate volunteers and friends to assist with tasks such as meal preparation or transportation. Through Aflac’s partnership with CancerCare, policyholders can get personalized notifications and access instant messaging when they use the My Cancer Circle app. Other benefits of CancerCare available to everyone include:
• Educational workshops and publications for both cancer patients and care partners and the bereaved.
• Counseling services – face-to-face, on-line or by phone, from licensed oncology social workers to help patients access practical assistance and resources.
Furthering its commitment to help patients facing cancer, Aflac recently announced the introduction of My Special Aflac DuckTM, a social robot created by Sproutel and Aflac to serve as a caring companion for children with cancer. This innovative, special companion, coupled with Aflac’s latest cancer product refresh, is an ongoing reflection of the company’s dedication to be there when policyholders need them most.
Aflac Cancer Protection Assurance is available through the work-site, as well as on agent-assisted individual-paid basis, and offered with high, medium and low options – all with Health Savings Account (HSA) compatibility.
