Automobile
Quality coverages, competitive rates, choice of carriers including AAA, Integrity, 1st Auto, The Hartford and AARP, Safeco, The Travelers, and Progressive among others. We’ll search the marketplace for the best plan to meet your needs.
Antique and Collectors Autos
If you have antique collector cars, you will be surprised to know that you can have them covered year-round for a very minimal premium if your annual mileage is limited. There is extra coverage for spare parts, lower deductibles, free display signs for auto shows, and agreed amount coverage. Agreed Amount coverage is very important because most standard auto policies only cover the “Actual Cash Value” which means they may pay you less than the antique value of your car. Agreed Amount means they will pay you the full amount you insure it for less any deductible. In general, your vehicle needs to be at least ten years old and increasing in value to qualify. The car should only be used for personal use and shows, not to drive to work. The vehicle must be stored in a locked garage when not in use.
Both companies are good. Hagerty offers some extra benefits you may want including club membership, collector car magazine, roadside assistance and flatbed towing (up to 125 miles), and more.

Short Term Medical
Low-cost, simplified issue plan for when you may not be eligible for the Affordable Care Act. Maybe you missed the open enrollment period or just couldn’t afford the premium. Much less expensive than COBRA continuation when you are laid off. Use the links below or call us for quotes from National General, Pivot, IHC, or Allied. Short-term plans do not cover pre-existing conditions. Wisconsin regulation limits you to 18 months with one STM carrier, then a 63-day gap. Could insure elsewhere for the 63 days.
Use the link above for the short term that includes unlimited doctor and Urgent care visits with a modest copay ($50), no networks to worry about, and optional unlimited access to free MD-Live telehealth visits ($15.95/mo). All plans offer a choice of $250,000 to $1.5 Million maximum protection, a choice of deductibles, and either an 80/20 or 50/50, or 100/0 coinsurance.
Use the link above for a quick estimate. The lowest premiums show first but look for “Choice” plans if you like money-saving office visit co-pays. Moving up to “Standard” and “Deluxe” add-in coverage for drugs while lower plans offer a drug discount card.
We recommend the $5,000 Deductible 100% plan as it provides $1 million coverage and pays 100% after the annual deductible. It also includes a $50 copay for Urgent Care, so even if you have not met the deductible, you only pay $50 for up to four Urgent Care visits. For even more complete coverage we can add a supplement covering accident medical expenses up to your deductible amount
