Query:
Hello. My name is Erik Martin (more about me at
martinspiration.com), writer with Insurance.com. I'm looking to
interview Medicare insurance experts, insurance industry
professionals, attorneys, and other experts for the following
story:
What Medicare does and doesn't cover. This story will explore
how Medicare works and what its different parts (A, B,
C/Advantage, D) cover and doesn't cover. Below is a list of
questions I'm seeking answers to. I can only conduct email
interviews (please email me back full-sentence written responses
that I can use as quotes). My deadline is noon central,
Thursday, July 2.
QUESTIONS: 1. What is Medicare (define it and its purpose)? How
does Medicare work? Who is eligible and when? What is "original
Medicare" versus Medicare Advantage? Who funds Medicare? 2. How
has Medicare and its benefits, costs, and parts changed in any
way over recent years? 3. For Medicare part A: When is it used?
What does it cover? What does it not cover? Who is eligible?
What is the out-of-pocket cost? What are the max benefits
(calendar year/lifetime)? 4. For Medicare part B: When is it
used? What does it cover? What does it not cover? Who is
eligible? What is the out-of-pocket cost? What are the max
benefits (calendar year/lifetime)? 5. For Medicare part C
(Advantage): When is it used? What does it cover? What does it
not cover? Who is eligible? What is the out-of-pocket cost? What
are the max benefits (calendar year/lifetime)? 6. For Medicare
part D: When is it used? What does it cover? What does it not
cover? Who is eligible? What is the out-of-pocket cost? What are
the max benefits (calendar year/lifetime)? 7. For any Medicare
parts/benefits that don't cover a medical-related need, what
options do Medicare recipients have? What can/should they do
here? 8. For those who choose original Medicare, do they not opt
also for Medicare part D? How do they get their prescription
drugs, and what is/isn't covered here for these folks? 9. What
should those eligible for Medicare consider carefully before
opting for Original vs. Advantage and before using any of the
parts/benefits? 10. Any other thoughts, tips, or suggestions on
this topic? 11. What is your full name, title, company,
city/state location, and email address?

Deadline: 1:00 PM EST - 7 July
Query:
Hello. My name is Erik Martin, freelance writer for
Bankrate.com. I'm seeking to interview mortgage lending
professionals, real estate attorneys, housing industry/real
estate organization spokespersons, real estate faculty, and
other real estate experts for the following story:
Make sure you're getting the right mortgage loan modification.
This story will briefly explain how Caliber Home Loans had
pushed customers into interest-only and short-term modifications
that reverted to much higher payments later but were recently
forced to provide $17 million in loan forgiveness (details at
https://www.housingwire.com/articles/caliber-home-loans-settlement-will-provide-17-million-in-loan-forgiveness-to-new-yorkers/),
but mostly focus on the lessons to be learned here: How
borrowers can pursue mortgage modifications, what kinds to aim
for and request, how to do so, and how to ensure that your
lender is providing the relief you need. Please contact me if
you'd like to participate. My deadline is noon central, Tuesday,
July 7, 2020. QUESTIONS: 1. What are the important takeaways
from the Caliber Home Loans news (visit the link above for
details)? What are the lessons to be learned here for borrowers?
2. How does a loan modification work? Does it vary by lender?
Are there standardized rules that lenders must now follow due to
COVID-19 and CARES Act? 3. How is loan modification different
from forbearance and the CARES Act? What are the details/rules
here? 4. Who should pursue a loan modification? Who are good
candidates? How do you qualify? 5. What kind(s) of loan
modification should borrowers pursue and request, and why? 6.
What is a "bad" loan modification deal for a borrower? What
should they watch out for and not agree to, and why? How can
they ensure they aren't being taken advantage of? 7. Any other
thoughts, tips, or ideas? 8. What is your full name, title,
company, city/state location, and email address?

Deadline: 1:00 PM EST - 9 July
Query:
Hello. My name is Erik Martin, and I am a reporter for Real
Estate Weekly, a nationally syndicated section published weekly
in newspapers across the country (visit
tinyurl.com/ejmctwfeatures for samples). I'm looking to
interview real estate agents/brokers, lenders, attorneys,
housing industry analysts, real estate faculty/professors, and
other real estate experts for the following story:
Shopping for your first home? Avoid these mistakes. A recent
survey by Porch (details at
https://porch.com/resource/where-did-you-find-it) found that
first-time homebuyers are 3x more likely to feel less prepared,
relying more on word-of-mouth than online listings in finding a
realtor. Also, almost half (48.8%) of all homebuyers took out a
mortgage at a bank they were already banking at. And, 3 in 4
admitted to not fully understanding the terms of what they were
signing. Similarly, 36.6% reported not understanding their
homeowners insurance policy. The same percentage of respondents
admitted to not reading any or only some of the policy. This
story will highlight the key findings and provide insights and
tips on mistakes to avoid if you are a first-time homebuyer. I
can accept written responses (full-sentences that I can use as
quotes) via email to the following questions. My deadline is
noon central, Thursday, July 9.
QUESTIONS: 1. What did you find interesting or surprising about
the aforementioned study findings and why? 2. How common is it
for first-time buyers to make some mistakes during the home
shopping/purchasing process? 3. Why do you believe first-timers
are more likely to feel less prepared and rely more on
word-of-mouth than online listings in finding a realtor? Why is
this a mistake, and how can it be avoided? 4. Why do you think
nearly half took out a mortgage loan at a bank they were already
banking at? Why is this a mistake, and how can it be avoided? 5.
Why do you think so many don't understand the terms of what
they're signing? Why is this a mistake, and how can it be
avoided? 6. Why do so many not read any or enough of their
homeowners insurance policy? Why is this a mistake, and how can
it be avoided? 7. What are some other most common mistakes you
also observe first-timers making, and why? How can these
mistakes be avoided? 8. Any other thoughts, tips or suggestions
on this topic? 9. What is your full name, title, company,
city/state location, and email address?
