Strong Revenue Gains for Selected Food Service Firms Signal Premium Audit Potential for Insurers
For certain sectors of the US hospitality industry, strong sales growth experienced between 1999 and 2003 offers insurance companies writing these business classes an opportunity for enhanced premium audit income, according to information released by MarketStance.MarketStance, the business information, insurance statistics and analytical services firm that specializes in the US insurance industry, reports that nationally stronger-than-average sales growth during the four years ending 2003 was experienced by ice cream, soft serve and frozen yogurt shops, along with bagel and coffee shops.

Caterers and Casino Hotels also experienced strong sales growth of between 6% and 14% during...

Selecting an insurance company
It's the same with all things in life, we don't think about things until we need to and it's the same with health insurance as most people don't give it any serious consideration until they are faced with a urgent health crisis. Is it any surprise than that the majority of us are caught unawares when an emergency occurs and it is only then we realize the insurance we purchased many years ago is now out of date and doesn't provide sufficient cover for our present situation.
There are a bewildering array of options available when deciding on which insurance plan but one basic to remember is that all insurance is only as good as the insurance underwriters and the company behind it. Here are 9 points we should all consider before choosing our next insurance company.
1. Tell the truth
Full disclosure of the facts applies whether it's health, household, auto or personal insurance because withholding vital facts can and does invalidate insurance...

Waterless Urinals Pay for Themselves. The average saving can be over $1,500 in five years per urinal and that does not include less maintance cost and health benefits.
Waterless urinals pay for themselves. It will take between 12 to 18 months to recoup the cost of a waterless urinal. Over a five year period the saving will be between $1,500 to over $2,100 above the cost of the urinal. If you have three urinals that is a $4,500 savings, if you have 100 that can be over $150,000 in savingsHOW THEY WORK: Waterless Urinals resemble conventional fixtures, and easily replace them. They install to the regular waste lines, thus eliminating the flush water supply lines.
Flush valves are eliminated as well; there are no handles to touch, no sensors, no moving parts! The urinal bowl surfaces are urine repellent; urine is 99% liquid and its drainage is effected without flush water. Daily cleaning procedures are the same as for flushed urinals. ConservationThe conservation of water has become a requirement for many facilities, cities, states and the federal government. This need is driven by three main reasons: the availability of water, current sewer capacity...

With Physical Therapy Medicare Reimbursement Capped at $1,740, a Challenge to Physical Therapy to Step Up Health Promotion Strategies
Anchorage, Alaska (ContentDesk) January 1, 2006 -- Congress adjourned December 22 without completing work on a budget reconciliation bill (S. 1932), allowing the current moratorium on the Medicare therapy cap to expire December 31, 2005. Therefore, unbeknownst to most of the millions of Medicare recipients, beginning January 1, 2006, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) is expected to proceed with implementation of the $1,740 therapy cap, although Congress is likely to agree to modifications to the cap later in January. What these means for Seniors and others who depend upon Medicare for primary health care coverage is that unless and until Congress offers exceptions for those most needy, beginning in January, private out-patient physical therapy coverage will be limited to only $1,740 of coverage for this entire year.Because this is obviously not enough health care coverage to meet the needs of all Medicare recipients, health care providers and patients must turn to...
