- Renters InsuranceCLUE stands for Comprehensive Loss Underwriting Exchange and is a claims history database that allows insurance companies to access information about the dwelling or home in question in order to decide whether to insure a home and at what cost. CLUE reports provide a history of your property insurance claims for homes, rentals and vehicles. It’s offered by LexisNexis Risk Solutions, and the information in the report is subject to Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) guidelines. Using underwriting guidelines laid out in the FCRA, a CLUE report provides up to a seven-year history of automobile and homeowners/renters insurance losses associated with an individual. That includes the date of loss, loss type and amount paid, along with general information such as policy number, claim number and insurance company name. This information includes claims that were paid or denied, and also files opened for potential claims. For example, if you call your insurance agent to ask whether certain damage would be covered, but never start an actual claim, the agent might still set up a new claim file based on your phone call."

- Dental InsuranceThese are Dental Discount plans offered by name-brand carriers. Dental INSURANCE is also available at much higher cost ($240 - $480 per YEAR for individuals). 98% of Dental INSURANCE plans: charge copays for cleanings, have one year waiting periods for expensive dental procedures, and have deductibles, co-insurance copay amounts, and $1,000 - $1,500 annual plan limits. So, one root canal and crown tanks the plan limit. Dental DISCOUNT plans waive waiting periods, deductibles, some co-insurance, and do not have limits. In our view, Dental DISCOUNT plans are a better value. Compare your costs: Annual Premium + Deductible + Co-insurance copay + additional out of pocket costs over $1,000 limit your current INSURANCE may not insure... Discount plans discount what dentists charge, and do not pay for care.
