Arizona - My homeowners renewal policy just arrived with a 1% shed/other structure inclusion. I thought this was a mistake/rollover from our previous house that did have a storage shed. When I called travelers (through our company discounted rate line), the agent said they cannot remove the shed coverage as it is state law - even though I don’t have a structure? He actually got frustrated with me as he’s had to argue this with several policy owners? Is the agent just wildly wrong? What on Earth would I claim against this part of the policy when I don’t have an additional structure? Did AZ pass a really dumb law and I missed it? AZ Homeowners Ins Agent Redditors, please help me make sense of this!

For those of you with Pets Best, how long does it usually take for them to finish reviewing a claim? I feel like they are taking forever lately.

I recently almost got into an accident where the person in front of me stopped in an active lane of traffic and I had to hard brake. I stopped short of hitting the guy's bumper and we both pulled over to check if there's any damage. Confirmed no damage but he made me exchange phone numbers and driver's license info with him and we took pictures of the cars before going our separate ways. I didn't file a claim nor let my insurance know since there was no collision to begin with. A couple of days later I got a voicemail from his insurance's claims adjuster saying that a claim was made against me for a rear-end collision. Since it was after-hours I called the general support line for his insurance and got a hold of a live agent who was able to give me more information and what to do to dispute the claim. I've provided the pictures and dashcam footage leading up to the encounter to the claims adjuster and also filed a claim with my insurance because there's no other way of getting a hold of someone in my insurance until the weekday (I blame Tesla Insurance for shotty staffing). I wanted to ask the community if there's anything else I should do or be aware of in this process. I think the guy is trying to make a claim that I damaged his bumper as he had existing damage there (I confirmed in the pictures and the dashcam footage). EDIT: Forgot to mention that I plan on calling the other guy's claims adjuster as well as the one assigned to my claim to confirm receipt of information and if I need to provide anything else. I sent the pictures and dashcam footage to my claims adjuster as well.

State Farm raised my insurance from $180 a month to $340 over the span of 6 months. Very little and random explanations. My car is 10 years old, it’s insane. P.s. anyone know of good and not stupid expensive insurance in Los Angeles?

Recently a storm blew through and did a ton of damage in the neighborhood. Adjustor came out and declared the roof a total loss, however all said they were exploring possible negligence. Couple weeks later they declared that the could only pay for half the roof because they had pictures of roof damage 2 years ago (damage was just a dozen or so 3 tab shingles that had torn off, nothing major, which was since repaired). The next day they just deposited the money in my bank account, however I haven't signed or agreed to anything. Is it possible or worthwhile to fight this? Unfortunately I don't have a paper trail of the roof repair because a friend of mine fixed it to return a favor. I spoke with a roofing company with good reviews on Google who said they will fight it for us. That a good idea? Also reaching out to my friend to see if he has any companies he recommends.

I'm currently age 64 and in the throes of buying a LTC upfront 120k premium, "return of premium" for One America LTC insurance, and am working with a "financial advisor" who requests all my personal financial, living wills, etc. I feel like I'm being sucked into a ruse of their playing a role of financial advisor for a fee, when all I want is purchase of the policy, which, I thought, only needs my medical records? Help me out here...please. For upfront payment, am I being played that I have to provide personal financial info?

Hi I got nexplanon and was billed by planned parenthood for $400, my insurance Community Health Plan of Washington states it covers birth control, but I’m getting charged $400 for the insertion? Is this correct or should I be completely covered by my insurance?

My grandma has a dog and we helped her get insurance for him a while back, but her dementia has progressed quickly and pretty dramatically so my mom has taken over his care. (My grandma lives with my parents so she’s always had a big part in his care but now my mom has him full time). We have Lemonade. My mom told them what was going on and they said they could add my mom as a co-owner, but then she couldn’t make adjustments or any changes to his policy. Otherwise, she would have to cancel his account completely and start a new one under her name. She wanted to cancel it and start it under her name since sadly my grandma will not get better and she wants to add dentals to his plan, but he did have anal gland issues this year and lemonade said that if he has anal gland issues in the future they would no longer be covered under my moms plan because they would be considered a pre-existing condition now. Just looking for advice on what to do. It doesn’t seem fair, but I know insurance isn’t fair lol. Should we look at other insurance options? Or just add my mom as a co-owner? The anal gland issue was expensive so we don’t want to lose coverage on that if it comes back but also it sucks that my grandma has something we couldn’t predict nor control and now we’re in this predicament. Any advice would be helpful!!

I’m getting fed up with navigating these PPO plans. 3 tiers in network, out of network. Lab fees from pcps being sent out of network and charged outrageous amounts specialty providers working out of our primary hospital apparently “not covered”. I know there are others on here with worse situations. Surely there has to be a health insurance negotiator/broker that will help correct and track these charges to make sure we’re not getting wrecked by these incorrect charges. Something like a rocket money that will work through the fine print in the insurance contract and make sure we’re not being overcharged. I’m here for all the suggestions. We use Ascension smarthealth for reference and if you’re curious about it, stay away.

Hi everyone, I’m a female in my late twenties, not pregnant, and I live near Bowling Green, Ohio (Wood County). I’m on Buckeye Health Plan and have been with them for about 3 years. Overall, it’s been fine. I like their 24/7 nurse line, free dental coverage, and that they cover out-of-state ER visits. I travel a lot to Florida, so that’s been very helpful. That said, I’ve noticed some limitations, especially when it comes to finding mental health providers. Another limitation is medication coverage; sometimes, even when the generic version is unavailable, it’s still difficult to get the brand-name approved. I’m considering switching to a Medicaid plan that offers more options and benefits, especially in case I face bigger health issues like surgery or serious illness. From my research, CareSource, AmeriHealth Caritas, and Humana Healthy Horizons seem to have the best options. I also like when plans are good with technology and keep their websites up to date. The problem is, after searching Reddit and reading different posts, the opinions are all over the place. Finding a provider is not a problem, and I’ve already read what each plan offers. They all seem good, so that didn’t help narrow it down. I just don’t want to switch and then be stuck with a plan I don’t like for another year. I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who has experience with these plans and could recommend a good option.
