Permanent Life Insurance can provide coverage for your entire life. As long as payments are made, your loved ones can remain protected. Then when you turn age 95, or even sooner for some people, your contract will be paid in full - meaning, your coverage will continue for the rest of your life with no further payments due.
Compared to Term Life Insurance, which offers protection to age 80 with rates that increase over time.
No physical medical exam is required. Most who apply are accepted, even with pre-existing conditions. Approval is based on health information you provide or allow us to collect.
