New 5% Household Discount

New 5% Household Discount
On May 5, 2014, American Continental Insurance Company (ACI) will begin offering a 5% Household Discount
(HHD) on its Medicare Supplement plans marketed in Arizona. The new discount will apply when two Medicare
Supplement applicants reside (12 months or more) in the same household AND when both policies are issued in
Arizona by the same underwriting company (ACI).
