Common questions about term life
How does term life coverage generally work?
A policy provides life coverage for the contract's stated term, subject to its conditions. If the insured dies while coverage is in force, the insurer evaluates a claim under the policy; the term, premium schedule, exclusions and other requirements control.
What happens when the term ends?
Options vary by contract. Some policies may include renewal or conversion rights with specific deadlines, costs and eligibility requirements; other coverage may end. Review the policy before relying on any option.
