Waiver of premium. A life benefit may be continued for certain reasons. Examples include a short-term layoff or leave of absence. Coverage may also extend in keeping with the Family Medical Leave Act of 1993. This act allows a qualified enrollee, who has become totally disabled, to continue coverage. He or she does not have to pay a premium while being disabled.
Accelerated death benefit. This benefit provides financial safety to the insured in time of need. It also protects the beneficiary. It can be paid to an insured when a doctor confirms a terminal illness. The accelerated benefit is a part of the basic life insurance amount and is paid in a lump sum. The rest is paid to the insured's beneficiary once the insured passes away.
Conversion privilege. This commits the plan issuer to renew for a set amount of time. It doesn't matter if there are changes in the insured's health. It can be given to certain members whose coverage ends due to reasons detailed in the group's plan. It does not require a physical exam, nor does it need the insured to prove he or she qualifies. Coverage must be applied for. The first premium must be paid within 31 days from the date the coverage begins.
