Unfortunate events can strike anytime and leave you shattered.  Secure the foundation of your home and family with BPI/MS’ Home Care Advantage (HCA) Insurance.

All you need to protect your family, belongings and household is bundled in one comprehensive insurance package put together by BPI/MS. It is like a security blanket that will shelter you from possible financial woes and home damages.

What can be covered under HCA?

• Building or the structure of your private residence.

• Household Contents or the items of furniture, furnishings, electrical appliances, and other personal belongings (excluding cash & jewelry).

• Leasehold Improvements and contents of a rented house/unit: walls or dividers, flooring, carpets, enhance lighting, may also include plumbing (for a coffee area/kitchen).

HCA Coverage

How much coverage is needed?

The amount of coverage that you need depends on what it would cost to replace your home in the event of a total loss. While you may be able to get by with only 80% coverage, you will have to take the other 20% out of your pocket in the event of a total loss. The incremental cost to insure a property to full “replacement cost value” is so low it would be fool-hardy not to fully insure your property at full value.

What are the benefits of HCA?
