Q&A: What Is Life Insurance With Living Benefits?
When most people think of life insurance, they think about the death benefit that is paid to beneficiaries. While that is a major part of coverage, some policies may also include living benefits.
Living benefits can allow policyholders to access a portion of their policy’s benefit during their lifetime if a qualifying event occurs, such as a serious illness, chronic condition, or other covered health-related situation.
Every policy is different, which is why it’s important to understand what your coverage may include and how it could support you through different stages of life.

Living benefits may be provided by riders, which are supplemental benefits that can be added to a life insurance policy and are not suitable unless you also have a need for life insurance. Riders are optional, may require additional premium and may not be available in all states or on all products. This is not a solicitation of any specific insurance policy.
