LIVING BENEFITS ~ AN ADVANTAGE!
Life insurance you don't have to die to use. Many of us will need assisted care at some point in our lives. We may find ourselves struggling to pay medical bills or have medical debt. This coverage plays a huge role and a great financial relief if you experience a qualifying terminal, chronic, or critical illness, or critical injury.
Caring, planning and protecting what matters most.
WHAT ARE ACCELERATED BENEFITS RIDERS?
Sometimes there’s a large gap between what you need and what you can afford. We offer a rider that can help you close this gap and get you more of the coverage you need at an incremental cost. Accelerated Benefits Riders that let you access the death benefit, while living, in the event of a qualifying illness or injury.
We offer additional riders that can be added to provide an extra safety net or enhanced value for you and your loved ones, such as the following:
Balance Sheet Benefit Rider to waive the policy's surrender charge
Children’s Term Rider to add coverage for your kids
Accumulated Value Enhancements to grow your cash value accumulation potential
Gap Protector Rider to affordably add to your coverage over time
Guaranteed Flex Rider to protect your death benefit
Lifetime Income Benefit Rider for the potential of an income you’ll never outlive
Waiver riders that let you skip payments under certain conditions or hardships

HOW DOES ABR WORK?
Accelerated Benefits Riders are optional, no-additional cost riders that can allow you to access all or part of your death benefit, while living, if you experience a qualifying terminal, chronic, or critical illness, or critical injury. Generally, if you have been diagnosed with a terminal illness that will result in death within 24 months of certification of the illness by a physician or unable to perform certain daily activities (based on specific state-regulated requirements). The benefit payment will be a lump sum. There is no waiting period or annual benefit limit, but there is a lifetime limit on the amount of benefits you can receive across all Accelerated Benefits Riders. You can elect to request the full acceleration, on a discounted basis, and use the lump sum as you wish. You could also choose to leave a portion of the policy’s death benefit intact and receive a partial benefit. Leaving the entire policy intact for your beneficiary is also an option.
