Testimonials
A relationship of trust and dependence does not happen over night but builds as time passes. Our years of working together proves the trust we have in each other. We would not stay with someone that we can not depend on and I presume neither would INSURICA. They have been a big part of our survival and success through the good and bad times. Giving us strength in our decisions and the independence to know when it comes to Insurance we are backed up by the best in the industry. I wouldn’t have it any other way, thanks for many years of great service and many more to come.
Agency History
INSURICA Southwest has a long history here in Arizona and throughout the Southwest. Beginning operations in 1989 as Minard-Ames Insurance Group, the agency set out to create an organization built on honesty, integrity and accountability to their customers. In 2008 we took on an incredible partner called INSURICA and became known as Minard-Ames/INSURICA.  To maintain the local recognition of a name that promises a team who is local and committed to doing what’s right for their customers, on January 1, 2020, we became INSURICA Southwest.
As INSURICA Southwest, we maintain local ownership and decision-making power. As one of growing number of agencies across the country making up INSURICA, we have access to the resources, expertise and financial strength that INSURICA provides.

Fiduciary Responsibilities for Employer Health Plans: What Employers Should Know Now
When employers think about fiduciary responsibility, retirement plans often come to mind first. But recent developments make it clear that fiduciary duties also matter—sometimes significantly—when it comes to employer-sponsored health and welfare plans.
The New Era of Mental Health Parity Enforcement in 2026
Federal agencies have made mental health parity enforcement a top priority in 2026, and employers sponsoring group health plans are feeling the impact. Regulators are no longer satisfied with high‑level assurances that plans comply with the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA). Instead, they expect detailed, data‑driven documentation showing that mental health and substance‑use‑disorder benefits are truly comparable to medical and surgical benefits. This includes not only the written plan design but also how rules are applied in real‑world scenarios.
The 2026 Specialty Drug Surge: What Employers Need to Prepare For
Specialty drugs have been a major cost driver for years, but 2026 marks a significant shift in both scale and urgency. With GLP 1 medications expanding into new indications, gene therapies entering the market at record pace, and oncology drugs continuing to rise in both cost and utilization, specialty medications are projected to account for more than 60% of total pharmacy spending this year. That’s a dramatic change for employers, especially considering that specialty drugs represent fewer than 5% of total prescriptions.
