🏠📸 When was the last time you updated your home inventory?

Most people do not think about creating or updating a list of their belongings until after a loss happens. After a fire, storm, or theft, trying to remember every piece of furniture, every TV, every appliance, and every family heirloom can be overwhelming.

Taking a few minutes each year to update your home inventory can make the claims process much smoother and help ensure you receive the coverage you deserve.

A few items to include:

📱 Electronics
🛋️ Furniture
💍 Jewelry
🖼️ Artwork and collectibles
🛠️ Tools and equipment
👕 Clothing and personal items

An easy way to start is by walking through your home with your phone and recording a quick video of each room. Save receipts for major purchases and keep photos of valuable items in a secure location.

A little preparation today can make a big difference tomorrow.

✈️🚗 Heading out of state? Make sure your Medicare coverage is ready for the trip too.

Many people are surprised to learn that Medicare coverage can work differently once you leave your home state, especially if you have a Medicare Advantage plan.

Before you pack your bags, it is worth asking a few important questions:

🩺 Will my plan cover me where I am traveling?

🏥 Are there in-network doctors or hospitals nearby?

🚑 What happens if I need emergency care?

🌎 Does my plan offer any travel benefits?

The good news is that emergency care is generally covered anywhere in the United States, but routine care and provider networks can vary depending on your plan.

A quick review before your trip can help you travel with confidence and avoid unexpected surprises.
