The Accident and Health Insurance sector has been on uncertain
ground recently. The sector's investment gains have been volatile
due to choppy stock markets. While the stock market rose in the
third quarter, low interest rates are hurting the sector by making
it difficult to repay some of their older policies. The sector has
also seen declining revenue as customers shift towards scaled down
benefits packages to save money. This marks a huge shift in the
industry as customers have previously been more disposed toward
paying higher premiums for more comprehensive care.

administrative costs instead of actual medical care. Register now

Also, many newly elected Republicans in congress have vowed to
repeal the Obama Administration's healthcare reform. The sector has
a mixed view of a potential repeal as abolishing the premium
regulations may be offset by the loss of the guaranteed 32 million
new customers that will be brought in by the reform law's new
requirements. Originally major lobbyists were for the bill, it is
believed the sector will now spend a large amount of money getting
various nuances of the bill changed to help position it more
strongly for the future. Visit www.stockcall.com/ to see how
