Understanding the term insurance is confusing. However, our company believes that life should be easier and so does the language of insurance. To make it easier for you to understand, we have created some of the main insurance terms that are commonly used in the insurance world.

If the words you are looking for are not listed below, then please visit our Life Insurance Reference Area where you will find every word related to insurance arranged alphabetically.

Limited Payouts: Cash value, extra passion gain tiers and returns can be used to pay past the designated day fees for Whole Life and Global Living plans. This is a way to spend on continuous coverage for a limited number of years. “Limited Payments” is a program design, not an insurance coverage feature. Limited payout designs are based on estimates of future cash value or dividend development. These estimates are usually based on the insurance company’s current experience and financial investment assumptions and are likely to change over time. If efficiency is far less favorable than expected, an additional premium will be required. Insurance providers do not guarantee a limited payout design. We make no representations regarding the effectiveness or future success of the quote, forecast, or presumption of limited payout designs.

Investment: The real cash payment you make to the insurance company for premium resettlement each year.

Net Cost: Your total resettlement for a plan, let alone the cash surrender value in your plan, the gain or loss if you terminate the plan on the specified day.

Cost Contrast Index: There are 2 kinds of cost contrast index numbers. Both assume you will live and pay for the next 10 or 20 years. The Cost Contrast Index currently consists of many insurance company proposition journals to assist you in assessing the recommended plans. The index takes into account the loss of potential profit on your bankroll.

The surrender cost contrast index helps you compare costs over a 10 or 20 year duration assuming you submitted the plan and retrieved its cash value at completion of the duration. This works if you think the cash value level is very important to you.

The net cost contrast index helps you compare costs over a payout duration of 10 or 20 years assuming you will continue to pay fees on your plan and not take the cash value. This works if your main concern is the benefit to be paid on your death. The two index numbers coincide for the no-cash value plan.

Rider: This includes benefits that can be purchased with the package. Each motorcyclist is based on certain insurance company financing standards. The conditions governing each biker will be found in the plan. Biker Call Insurance can be incorporated into an Entire Life or Global Life plan as an inexpensive way to increase your death benefit while still enjoying the benefits of a long-term plan. Various other popular riders allow to deposit an extra premium in the plan to build up the included cash value or provide a fee waiver if you become completely disabled before a specified age or to pay additional benefits if you die of accidental causes, or provide affordable benefits for your family. Each biker is based on company terms specified in the plan contract.

Long-Term Care Benefits: Motorcyclists or the unique packages offered by some companies will pay long-term or damaging health benefits as an added benefit. This is called the life benefit or treatment rider. Relying on the plan, benefits may be for your home care and/or home health care.

Accelerated Death Benefit: Also known as a “Life Necessity Benefit”, provides access to a portion of the death benefit accrued prior to death when the individual is identified with an incurable disease. This benefit now soon consists of many affordable calling plans. The portion of the total death benefit that can qualify for advance under this benefit varies by insurance company. Most current specifications require the specific customer disclosures that comprise each application if the suggested plans carry this benefit. Please read carefully.

Loans: Global and Whole Life Plans allow you to use a portion of the cash value of your plan for your current needs through a loan. Insurance companies will charge low interest rates which are often much cheaper than the insurance company current prices of financial institutions. You may choose to pay the interest rate on the loan or deduct it from the future cash value. The outstanding loan amount and interest rate on outstanding loans will reduce the death benefit and cash surrender value.

Re-Entry: On many call plans, you can get approved for a lower future fee if you submit a new proof of insurability (usually a new clinical exam) on the day of resurrection. Of course, certification for reduced premiums depends on your insurability. You may be better off buying a plan with a longer tier premium coverage than taking the risk that your health and wellness may change.

Ranking Life Insurance Plans: This may be the result of having an unfavorable current or previous health and fitness background, or it may be due to work, or hazardous assignments. In the case of a candidate being offered coverage to a greater extent because of unwanted information, customer law in most cases provides for granting the customer or his doctor certain access rights to this information. The plan owner can use to decrease or remove the score if the problem or task that triggered the score has changed correctly. Each insurance company has its own rules and requirements for reconsideration of scores. There’s no guarantee that the insurance provider will clear the score, but it’s often worth asking for.

Cigarette smokers Condition: The insurance provider will provide discounted premium rates to buyers who do not smoke or use cigarettes. If you smoked or used any cigarette items before, most providers will assume you are a non-smoker if you haven’t actually used any cigarette items for one year prior to claiming coverage. Some insurance providers offer unique rates for regular cigar users and for those who only use smokeless cigarettes. If you purchased the plan when you were a smoker, you can reapply for a reduced non-smoker rate one year after you stop smoking. Customers should understand that pure nicotine can be detected in a variety of routine testing tests that are currently generally required by most insurance providers. Insurance company standards regarding cigarette use and rules regarding reconsideration after you quit smoking differ from company to company and through current company rules and treatment.
