Wellman Shew has been an insurance expert for nearly four decades, specializing in employee benefits, Section 125 plans, life insurance, disability insurance, Health Savings Accounts (HSAs), long-term care insurance, and 401k plans. His peers, businesses, and customers all value his industry knowledge. In February 2022, Shew celebrated his 40th year in the California insurance market.
Wellman Shew has seen a lot of changes in the employee benefits business over the years as more organizations moved away from traditional pension models and toward new programs. Other significant changes included the Affordable Care Act's mandated health insurance coverage and new marketplace choices that expanded the reach of benefit packages to even the smallest California firms. Despite these significant changes, Shew has maintained his top position in the sector, as evidenced by personal profiles in professional journals.
Shew recently created a blog on his personal website, WellmanShew.com, to share his knowledge with other industry professionals and customers. The advantages and disadvantages of health savings accounts, short-term and long-term disability insurance, high-deductible health plans, umbrella insurance, and ways to save money on insurance have all been discussed recently. Consumer education is critical as plan options grow, allowing people to make the best decisions for their health and retirement.
