    Will Health Insurance Improve or Get Worse Under Clinton?

    Has there been a more politically divisive time in American history? Well, there was the Civil War. But otherwise, things are pretty grim in the world of Democrats vs. Republicans. So when we speculate about whether the insurance situation can improve under a Hillary Clinton presidency, we have to consider her friction with a Republican Congress.

If you are looking for an insurance agency you can trust, look no further than Hettler Insurance. Meghan and the team are refreshingly professional and easy to work with. I was with my previous insurance agency for two... years, but they were no match for Meghan at Hettler. She was able to find the same policy/coverage with a significantly lower premium (with the potential for even more savings after 90 days). Every one of the staff is courteous, attentive, and helpful. Thanks Meghan and everyone at Hettler!read more

A friend recommended Hettler Insurance Agency for my family’s health insurance last year. As new immigrants, we got totally lost with what we can choose and how. Mr. Hettler has been so patient to us with full... explanation of the policies and all the guidance we need. We are very thankful to him with the insurance package we get. This is the company where the staff are very friendly and they always know what the customers need.read more

Ron Hettler and his staff are the best. I have used Ron for personal and business insurance for 20+ years, with no regrets. Recently he helped me sign up for Medicare supplemental insurance. We spent a good hour going... over the endless inane paperwork, even though I know his compensation for this is next to nothing. Good people, good insurance.read more

Most Texas families never open their insurance policy until a claim is denied. By then, it's too late.The declarations page — the one or two-page "control panel" at the front of your policy — tells you everything: your coverage limits, your deductibles, your endorsements, and what your insurer will actually pay. And in Texas, one line on that page can cost you thousands: the wind and hail deductible. Unlike a flat $1,000 deductible, Texas policies often calculate wind/hail as a percentage of dwelling coverage. On a $300,000 home with a 2% wind/hail deductible, you owe $6,000 before your insurer contributes a dollar toward storm damage. That is not a typo.Then there's the endorsement trap. Homeowners assume they have replacement cost coverage on personal property because they remember discussing it with an agent years ago. But if the endorsement isn't listed on your declarations page, the coverage almost certainly does not exist. A stolen laptop that cost $1,500 new gets an actual cash value payout of $300.Ron Hettler, CIC (Certified Insurance Counselor) walks through every section of your policy — declarations page, coverage types vs limits vs exclusions, the RCV/ACV distinction that quietly costs families thousands, and a seven-step annual review process.

Most Texas drivers who rejected PIP to save a few dollars never replaced it with anything. That's a real gap — and one accident is enough to expose it.Medical Payments Coverage (MedPay) is the low-cost, no-fault add-on that pays your accident-related medical bills immediately, before your health insurance processes a single claim. It applies to both auto policies AND homeowners policies. On the auto side it covers you, your passengers, and even pedestrians you might strike. On the home side (formally "Coverage F") it pays for guest injuries on your property — the neighbor who slips on your porch, the delivery driver who trips on an uneven walkway, the kid who breaks a wrist on your trampoline.The pricing math is hard to argue with: $5,000 in MedPay coverage typically runs $5 to $10 per month. If you carry a high-deductible health plan, MedPay covers your deductible and copays on the spot instead of stacking bills while you wait weeks for a liability determination.The single most common issue Ron Hettler, CIC sees: Texas drivers assume they have PIP or MedPay when they actually rejected PIP in writing years ago and never added MedPay. Pull your declarations page. Read the "Medical Payments" line. If it's blank, you have a gap worth closing before the next accident.Get Better.
