Term Life with Living Benefits
Financial Protection for Your Family … Simple
These are term life insurance plans that include living benefits. This means that they will pay you a lump sum for chronic, critical, and terminal illnesses like cancer, heart attack or stroke. Depending on your diagnosis, you can get up to 90% of the death benefit while you're still alive to help pay for medical bills, rent/mortgage or a long term care facility. Term life insurance plans are fully underwritten based on age, health and non-tobacco use.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to apply?
Most life insurance companies have a short list of health questions to answer. Depending on your answers, the life insurance company may require additional blood work. This can be scheduled at your convenience. If you do not want to complete any blood work, ask your local agent about simplified issue policies. Simplified issue policies only have a few short health questions to qualify. These policies may cost a little more, but are much faster to apply and get approved for.
How much of a death benefit do I need?
This depends on why you are buying life insurance. Are you wanting to pay off a certain debt, like a mortgage or care loan? Or do you want to replace your income so your spouse can continue paying current expenses after you pass away? There are many different approaches you can take when deciding the amount of life insurance you need. Talk to a local agent to help you decide how much life insurance you may need.
