Potential Healthcare Cost Increases in 2026 As we approach 2026, healthcare consumers should prepare for significant increases in health insurance premiums. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) marketplace is set to see some of the steepest hikes since its inception, with rates in certain states jumping by over 60%. As enhanced federal premium subsidies are likely to expire without congressional action, more than 22 million Americans-92% of ACA participants-may confront out-of-pocket premium increases exceeding 75%. This trend reflects not only rising medical costs but also profit pressures from major insurers, creating a challenging environment for consumers seeking affordable healthcare options.

Renters sometimes overlook the need for insurance based on the belief that they may not have a significant amount of personal possessions, or because the property is already insured by the owner.

Fidelity National Information Services employees must note how while it is true that a rental property is insured by the owner, the destruction or loss of your personal belongings is not. But, that’s not the only risk renters need to worry about.

The typical renter’s insurance policy can cover your possessions against losses arising from fire, smoke, lightning, theft, vandalism, explosion, wind storm and water damage (excluding floods).

If you are employed at Fidelity National Information Services, even if you don’t believe that the value of your personal possessions warrants insurance protection (though you may think differently after an inventory of their value), renter’s insurance covers other potential risks that can adversely impact your finances.

Fidelity National Information Services employees must note that renter’s insurance is designed to cover damages and costs in the event that visitors are injured in your apartment or elsewhere by you, your pet, or a family member living with you. This includes any legal defense expenses if you are taken to court.

A renter’s policy may also cover additional living expenses should you be unable to live in your apartment due to a covered peril, such as fire, though the policy may set limits on how much you will be reimbursed.

Fidelity National Information Services employees should make sure to know whether a policy insures for actual cash value (pays to replace your possessions after reducing for depreciation) or for replacement cost (which pays the actual cost of replacing items, up to policy limits). In most cases, replacement cost coverage is the smarter option.

If you are employed at Fidelity National Information Services and have any possessions of particularly high value such as art or jewelry, you may want to add a floater to the standard renter’s insurance policy.
