Some life insurance policies include living-benefit features that may allow an insured person to access a portion of the death benefit after certain qualifying health events. For a homeowner, that potential access can be relevant because a serious illness or other covered event may affect both the ability to work and the ability to keep up with financial obligations.
Living benefits vary by policy and insurer, and they are not available under every life insurance contract. We help you understand the features, eligibility requirements, and limitations before you decide whether this type of coverage fits your protection plan.
The details matter. We focus on what a policy actually provides, when benefits may apply, and how accessing benefits can affect the policy.
Review the types of covered events that may trigger access to living benefits under a particular policy.
Understand how much of a death benefit may potentially be available and what requirements apply.
Discuss how accelerated benefits or other living-benefit features may affect the remaining death benefit and policy values.
Consider how a serious health event could affect your ability to earn income and manage housing costs.
