Whats
So Great About UA? Everything!
When a person is sick, it is
important they receive the best care possible. With HMOs running the
show, this isnt necessarily happening. According to a recent
survey conducted by the Kaiser Family Foundation and the Harvard
School of Public Health:
- 95% of doctors and 92% of
nurses said managed care has increased the amount of administrative
paperwork for providers and patients.
- 86% of doctors and 82% of
nurses said managed care has decreased their patients ability
to see medical specialists.
- 72% of doctors and 78%
of nurses said managed care has decreased the quality of care
for people who are sick.
Luckily, our customers dont have
to rely on HMOs for health coverage. United American offers a better
way! With our Medicare Supplement plans, customers not only get good
protection, but they reap the benefits of Automatic Claims
Filing service. Plus, because United American does not force them to
use a network, customers can choose the doctor or specialist theyd
like to see. Weve proven our commitment to service time and time
again. Now, I am pleased to tell you that UA is testing a new
program to help reduce future Medicare Supplement premium rate
increases.
Of course, one of UAs biggest
selling points is our financial stability. And Im proud to say
for the 28th consecutive year, UA has received an A+ Superior rating
from A.M. Best. Very few health insurers are able to qualify for an
A+ rating - a real testament to UAs overwhelming strength! See
page 7 to find out how to order your Bests Agents Guide.
As you all know, more people will
hear about United American at the end of this month when Paul Harvey
officially begins endorsing our company. Like you, Im very
excited about the opportunity this association will bring our Branch
Office Division. Read of his recommendation in a letter to the
company on page 5. As you may recall,
he only accepts one in 12 advertisers who apply for his endorsement
- a fact by which we can be proud!
With all that UA offers, well
see you at the TOP, T.E.A.M. - As you can see, everyone working
together towards more improvement and achievement. None of us is as
strong as all of us in reaching even higher levels of success!
