Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract] |
GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS | On April 1, 2015, the Company announced that it completed the acquisition of Ternian Insurance Group LLC ("Ternian"), a leading provider of voluntary, limited benefit affordable health plans and other employee benefits coverage for hourly and part-time workers and their families. The Company recognized intangible assets of $13 million associated with this acquisition. During September 2015, as part of its profitability enhancement initiatives, the Company decided to wind-down all of its retail insurance operations in Australia. As a result of this decision, the Company recognized an impairment of an associated finite-lived intangible asset. The impaired intangible asset related to the purchase of an Australian distribution network in 2009, and had an initial expected useful life of thirty years. The impairment expense of $13 million has been included as part of the reorganization and related expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The following table shows an analysis of goodwill and intangible assets:
|  | Goodwill |  | Intangible assets with an indefinite life |  | Intangible assets with a finite life |  | Total |
| Net balance at December 31, 2014 | $ | 47,148 |  |  | $ | 26,036 |  |  | $ | 15,776 |  |  | $ | 88,960 |  |
| Acquisition of Ternian | — |  |  | — |  |  | 13,330 |  |  | 13,330 |  |
| Amortization | n/a |  |  | n/a |  |  | (2,022 | ) |  | (2,022 | ) |
| Impairment charges | — |  |  | — |  |  | (12,939 | ) |  | (12,939 | ) |

| Gross balance at September 30, 2015 | $ | 42,237 |  |  | $ | 26,036 |  |  | $ | 29,166 |  |  | $ | 97,439 |  |

n/a – not applicable We estimate that the amortization expense for our total intangible assets with a finite life for the next three months will be less than $1 million and annual amortization expense for 2016 through 2018 will be approximately $2 million and 2019 through 2020 will be approximately $1 million each year. The estimated remaining useful lives of these assets range from three to nine years. Intangible assets with an indefinite life consist primarily of U.S. state licenses that provide a legal right to transact business indefinitely.
