Study Notes

Life Insurance Policy Provisions and Options

  • Policy loans require that past-due interest is added to the total debt.
  • A War Exclusion clause in a Whole Life policy does not affect the payout if the insured is killed in an automobile accident while on leave.
  • Long term care riders are triggered by the insured's inability to perform two or more activities of daily living.
  • Settlement Options can be selected by the policyowner, not solely by the beneficiary.
  • Life insurance claims for suicides within the contestable period are denied based on the Suicide clause.
  • If a policy loan's interest payment is missed, the insurer will add the unpaid interest to the loan balance.
  • A decreasing term rider can be added for additional coverage on a Whole Life policy.
  • The Entire Contract provision states that the policy, application, and any riders make up the entire agreement.
  • The Suicide provision is designed to protect insurers from applicants considering suicide.
  • In the case of divorce, the ex-spouse remains the beneficiary unless officially changed, even with ownership transfer.
  • Variable Life insurance offers level premiums while allowing policyowners investment options.
  • The Payor Benefit rider on Juvenile policies waives premiums if the adult-payor dies or becomes disabled.
  • The Waiver of Premium provision does not require eligibility for Social Security disability for claims—this is incorrect.
  • The automatic premium loan provision helps prevent lapses in coverage on a policy.
  • Exclusions in a policy refer to specific risks that the insurance will not cover.
  • The Guaranteed Insurability Rider allows buying additional coverage specified in the contract without proof of insurability.
  • If insured with an Accidental Death rider dies from natural causes, the full policy payout is made ($50,000).
  • To protect against inflation with an increasing Death Benefit, choosing Paid-Up Additional Insurance as a Dividend Option is advisable.
