Here Are Some Answers:
Q: Does my health insurance cover at home tests? How does it get paid for?
A: Yes, as of January 15th insurance companies are required to cover the cost up to $12 per individual test. You can either submit a claim to your insurance company or find a location participating with your insurer where you can pick up your test with verification of your insurance coverage.
Q: What if I’m on Medicare?
A: Original Medicare is not providing free at-home tests. Your individual supplement plan or Advantage plan may offer coverage. Check with your insurer.

From all of us at Gallen Insurance
On April 10, 2020, the Gallen Insurance office will close at 3:00 pm eastern, in observance of Good Friday.
We heard of a need from Penn State, St. Joe’s staff for travel size toiletries; shampoo, body wash & deodorant, to shower before heading home to lower the risk of bringing COVID-19 home to their families. Pictured here is Jonas (11) & Isabel (7) handing over Gallen Insurance’s donation of over 350 travel sized items to Gisselle, CA @ St. Joe’s. Thank you to all those on the front line working to keep us safe! #Gallencares#community #weareallinthistogether
On March 27th, President Donald Trump signed the “Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act”, also known as the CARES ACT.
The Cares Act for Small Businesses is a relief package that includes a Paycheck Protection Program which provides $350 billion of assistance to small businesses to help them keep their employees on payroll and cover important expenses through a forgivable loan program.
Loans can be accessed through any FDIC bank or Credit Union. Per Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin, the loan program should be up and running by the end of the week & turnaround for a loan application should be fairly fast, including the same day!
Insurance is a vital part of your life – we are here to help!
Many companies are deferring payments and waiving late fees. Contact us online or call us at 610-777-4123 for help navigating those waters today!
Most insurance companies are providing insurance bill grace periods for those in financial need at this time.
It is important that you know how your insurance company is handling this before withholding payment – *especially if you are on automatic payments, otherwise known as EFT.
Feel free to call us at 610-777-4123 or contact us online with any questions or for more details.
Call our main office number 610-777-4123 for assistance.

Real estate is selling rapidly again thanks to low interest rates and available homes on the market. If you are a first time home buyer, or even a current home owner, it is important to make sure you have your home properly protected in the event the unexpected happens.
Many insurance companies offer multi policy discounts when you combine your auto and homeowner insurance. Using an insurance agency, such as Gallen Insurance, enables you to see to quotes from many carriers and to obtain the protection you need at a desirable price.

Meet May’s Member Spotlight – Ben Gallen
Company: Gallen Insurance
Position: Personal Lines/Small Business Account Manager/Producer
GRYP Member Since: 2016
Ben got involved with GRYP in 2016 at the encouragement of his employer. He wanted to meet other young professionals in the area and get involved in the community. And GRYP was a great way to do just that.
Company: Gallen Insurance
Position: Personal Lines/Small Business Account Manager/Producer
GRYP Member Since: 2016
Ben got involved with GRYP in 2016 at the encouragement of his employer. He wanted to meet other young professionals in the area and get involved in the community. And GRYP was a great way to do just that.
Since joining GRYP, Ben has become a very active member, attending as many events as possible and assuming a leadership role on the board of directors and as Events Committee chair in 2019. Outside of GRYP, Ben has also been on the board for the Pagoda Pacers.
Ben appreciates all that the Greater Reading Area has to offer including live music at eclectic bars and the Downtown Alive Concert Series. In his spare time, Ben also enjoys traveling and seeing cultures from around the world.
On being a young professional in the Greater Reading Area:
As a young professional, Ben believes being considered “young” has its perks, but also its downfalls. “One of the challenges I face being in the insurance industry is being viewed by older generations as inexperienced. One of the perks is being Third Generation at Gallen Insurance and continuing on the family business.”
Most meaningful achievements:
– Graduating from Marymount University on the Dean’s List
– Obtaining his insurance licenses and being a productive member of the company
Tips to other young professionals:
“One of the best pieces of advice I have received from some of my mentors is that criticism is not a form of punishment. Criticism should be used as a tool for learning from the past while providing for a better future.”

- CO can be deadly- it kills more than 400 people each year & puts over 20,000 into the hospital
- Carbon Monoxide gas is colorless & odorless making it difficult to detect
- CO gas is produced by furnaces, generators, fireplaces & gas grills to name a few
We urge you, if you don’t have a detector, please purchase one & if you do have one, time to check the batteries.
The entire Gallen work family is thankful that this family had a Carbon Monoxide detector and paid attention when the alarm went off.
Recently, one of our employee’s family members had a close call with what is known as the “silent killer”, Carbon Monoxide. At 1:30 am he was awoken by the sound of the Carbon Monoxide Detector going off. Upon calling the fire department, the firemen were able to use a meter when they arrived to check the carbon monoxide levels. The firemen took one step into the house with the monitor & immediately put on oxygen masks as the reading was off the charts!!
The firemen instructed the family, who had thankfully left the house as soon as the alarm had sounded, that if they had not heard the alarm or if they had not evacuated the house, the family would be dead.
This family had a carbon monoxide detector & paid attention when the alarm went off.
We urge you, if you do not have a detector, please purchase one & if you do have one, check the batteries.
From paint to decor and fixtures, the team did a tremendous job creating a sanctuary!! Just look at this lovely group of volunteers & the beautiful room!
If you have children, take a moment to read.
We look forward to offering Acuity Insurance, our newest carrier!

Have a Safe, Happy & Healthy Halloween
- Make sure your driveway, walkways and yard are well lit
- Keep trip or fall hazards out of the area
- Be extra cautious with your pets, the costumes & strangers on their property can cause them to react in an overly excited or agitated way
- Jack-o-lanterns are cute, but they are dangerous when you decide to use real lit candles, consider battery operated candles instead
- Don’t hand out or accept hand made treats!
- If you are hosting a party or Halloween get together, be sure that your guests have a designated driver if alcohol will be present. We also suggest that you review your homeowners policy to be sure that you have the necessary liability coverage.
Give your agent a call to make sure you are prepared to have a Safe & Happy Halloween!!

Distracted Drivers Are Scary!
As an employer, it is important to have training programs in place to help establish behaviors to keep your employees safe behind the wheel.
Whether that is the drive in to work, to a job site, running company errands or delivering products, you want your employees to be safe. Distracted driving may be caused by the driver using their cell phone, but also from a variety of other sources inside or outside the vehicle:
- Cell Phones; talking or texting
- Monitoring GPS system
- Changing the radio volume or station
- Interacting with passengers
*In 2014 over 3,000 people were killed in crashes involving distracted drivers & over 431,000 additional people were injured.*
Automobile & mobile device manufacturers are constantly looking for ways to combat the high statistics of distracted driving accidents, however, so far the hoped for increase in safety is not being realized. Studies have shown that even hands-free cell phones requires the drivers hands & eyes.
We recommend that you talk with your insurance agent who can share suggestions for effective loss control. Visit the National Safety Council website to view downloadable material for employers; including samples for an employer distracted driving policy & sample employee communications.

October is now Pinktober
Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Breast cancer is the second most common type of cancer in women. About 1 in 8 women born today in the United States will get breast cancer at some point.
The good news is that most women can survive breast cancer if it’s found and treated early. A mammogram – the screening test for breast cancer – can help find breast cancer early when it’s easier to treat.
National Breast Cancer Awareness Month is a chance to raise awareness about the importance of early detection. Make a difference! Spread the word about mammograms and encourage communities, organizations, families, and individuals to get involved.
Don’t forget to send in your photos for our 2017 Pet Halloween Contest!!
Have a Safe, Happy & Healthy Halloween
Sweet treats, scary decorations, trick-or-treaters….these are the first things that come to mind about Halloween. Have you considered that there are liability exposures associated with having guests on your property? Whether that guest is visiting for a Halloween party or just on your property long enough to ring your door bell and grab some treats, it’s important either way to make sure you are considering the safety of your property & protecting your investment.
- Make sure your driveway, walkways and yard are well lit
- Keep trip or fall hazards out of the area
- Be extra cautious with your pets, the costumes & strangers on their property can cause them to react in an overly excited or agitated way
- Jack-o-lanterns are cute, but they are dangerous when you decide to use real lit candles, consider battery operated candles instead
- Don’t hand out or accept hand made treats!
If you are hosting a party or Halloween get together, be sure that your guests have a designated driver if alcohol will be present. We also suggest that you review your homeowners policy to be sure that you have the necessary liability coverage.
Give your agent a call to make sure you are prepared to have a Safe & Happy Halloween!!

Great photo of Kevin Moore The Law Firm of Leisawitz Heller from our anniversary celebration!
We are ready for fall y’all! Many thanks to Amy Steins Flowers, Inc.
Look at this lovely group of staff members! Ann Gallen Moll, President, is holding our award presented by the Greater Reading Chamber of Commerce & Industry
- Getting Married?
- Hosting a charity function?
- Sponsoring a walk/run?
- Hosting a 60th Anniversary Open House? (Like Us!!)
When hosting any type of event, new liabilities can come up that you may not have thought about before. Think of an event when Volunteers are running booths, what if someone was injured? How about a wedding planned outside and it rains, even downpours all day!?! Seems like a good reason for Event Cancellation insurance. Hosting a book signing & the author doesn’t show up? Sounds like it may be time to make sure the ‘non-appearance’ clause is included in your insurance package.
We work with the insurance companies who offer competitive rates on additional event coverage such as General Liability, Property, Event Cancellation and more!
One week from today we will be celebrating 60 years with an open house! Stop in and say hello, congratulate the team & enjoy light refreshments.
Did you know that Joe Gallen ran for County Treasurer, back in the day?
As we celebrate our 60th anniversary, we wanted to go back to the beginning & tell you just how Gallen Insurance started. Our agency was established in 1957 by Joseph J. Gallen, however the history of insurance goes back even further in the family to Joe Sr’s father, Alexander Joseph Gallen (known as AJ). Joseph Sr. worked with his father at an insurance agency but shortly after his father passed away he was fired. At this time, Joe Sr. decided to go into business on his own & founded Joseph J. Gallen Insurance. Gallen was and still is a main street insurance agency writing both personal & commercial insurance. Ann Gallen Moll was the first of Joe’s children to begin working at the agency in 1978. His son, Jack, joined in 1979. In 1981 Joe Sr. and Ann purchased 50% of Berkleigh Insurance and Ann remained working at the Berkleigh office until 1985 when the second half of Berkleigh was purchased. The two offices merged into our current location at 2237 Lancaster Pike Shillington, PA & thus became known as Gallen Insurance. The family continued to join the agency with the addition of Joe Jr. and Mark in 1985. Joe hired his son-in-law Donald H. Moll (current owner of B&G Glass) in 1986 and son David Gallen in 1989.
As both family & business became more interesting around 1988, Joe Sr. decided to step out of the business for 6 months to see if the family could agree long enough to run a business. Ann was elected President by her 4 brothers. In 1989 the agency hired its first health insurance producer. Joe Sr. officially retired at the age of 65 in 1991.
All of Joe Sr. & Melba Gallen’s children Teresa (Terry) Ernst, Michael Gallen, John (Jack) Gallen, Ann Moll, Joseph (Joe) Jr. Gallen & Christopher (Chris) Gallen have been a part of the agency’s history. Currently, Ann Moll, Joe Jr. Gallen & Dave Gallen still work for the agency. Recently Dave’s son, Ben Gallen joined the team as the first grandchild of Joe Sr. & Melba to work at Gallen on a full time basis.
Our ever popular sign has been changed by our famous “Sign Guys” starting with Sam Moll, son of President Ann Moll, Ben Gallen, son of Dave Gallen, who passed the job down to his brother Grant and our current ‘Sign Guy’ is Owen Gallen, son of Chris Gallen.
We have a feeling there will be many more Gallen grandchildren & great-grandchildren to have a role here at the agency as we continue to be your local, trusted & family owned agency. However, let’s not forget our amazing employees outside of the family. Our current staff consists of 21 employees. We have 17 full time employees and 4 part time that make up our wonderful staff.
Join us in celebrating our 60th Anniversary, we look forward to seeing you at our Open House on Monday, September 18th, 2017!
We took some time to interview the newest member of our Benefit Team so you can get to know Brin better!
Our current ‘Sign Guy’ Owen Gallen has a local Shillington audience as he updates the sign.
