Assurity's orgins
date back to 1890 when Dr. A.O. Faulkner saw a need to
make accident coverage available to working people - not
just the wealthy. Dr. Faulkner's medical practice made
him an unwilling spectator to families' financial
catastrophes that inevitably followed a tragic illness
or accident. The original company, Modern Woodman
Accident Association, began in a one-room office in
York, Nebraska, but moved to the Capital city of Lincoln
a few months later, where it has been located ever
since. Over the next century, the Woodmen company
expanded and products, never losing sight of the promise
to provide help to people and families during difficult
times. Three separate Woodmen companies were merged to
create Woodmen Accident Life Company in 1954.
In 1997, the Assurity Life Insurance Company was formed
as a subsidiary of Woodmen Accident and Life, and in
2000, the two companies were united with the century-old
Lincoln Direct Life Insurance Company, comprising the
Lincoln Insurance Group. The union resulted in assets
exceeding $1 billion and the shared traditions of
integrity, financial accountability and service to
policyholders. On October 1, 2003, Woodmen and Assurity
were combined into one operating company retaining the
Assurity name.
Hot Products: Assurity specializes in Disability Income
insurance and will write both blue and white collar
