REINSURANCE REINSURANCE
The cost of reinsurance ceded totaled $42.4 million and $46.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.  We deduct this cost from insurance policy income.  Reinsurance recoveries netted against insurance policy benefits totaled $93.9 million and $105.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

From time to time, we assume insurance from other companies.  Any costs associated with the assumption of insurance are amortized consistent with the method used to amortize deferred acquisition costs.  Reinsurance premiums assumed totaled $3.7 million and $4.1 million for the three months ended March, 31 2025 and 2024, respectively. Insurance policy benefits related to reinsurance assumed totaled $5.5 million and $5.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
