Term Life Insurance with Living Benefits
Term life insurance is a type of life insurance policy that provides coverage for a specific period—typically 10, 20, or 30 years. If the insured passes away during the term, the policy pays a death benefit to the designated beneficiaries. It's an affordable way to secure financial protection for loved ones during key life stages, such as raising children or paying off a mortgage.
Living benefits, also known as accelerated benefit riders, are an added feature that allows the policyholder to access a portion of the death benefit while they are still alive, under certain circumstances. These benefits can be triggered by serious health events, such as:
Critical illness (e.g., heart attack, cancer, stroke)
Chronic illness (e.g., inability to perform two or more daily living activities)
Terminal illness (typically diagnosed with 12-24 months to live)
This feature can help ease the financial burden of medical expenses, long-term care, or loss of income, giving the policyholder more flexibility and support during difficult times.
