Living Benefits Option ("Accelerated Benefit")
Facing a terminal illness is a critical time for anyone, both emotionally and financially. Most people have friends or family for emotional support, but where do they turn for financial assistance?
 
The Hartford's Living Benefits Option may relieve some of the financial burdens associated with a terminal illness. This benefit allows you (and your spouse if covered) a one time option to receive up to 50% of the term life insurance proceeds, from $12,500 to a maximum of $500,000, upon being diagnosed by a physician as having twelve months or less to live as long as you are under age 70. Life proceeds can be distributed after a request and due proof have been received.
For example, if you're covered for $100,000 under the Term Life Plan and you become terminally ill, you may request an amount between $10,000 and $50,000. However, if you select $20,000 now, you may not request the remaining $30,000 in the future.
 

The funds are received in a lump sum payment without restriction on how you can use them. The face amount of your term life policy is then reduced by the accelerated benefit amount paid out.
 
Individuals should consult their personal tax advisor since the proceeds under this benefit may be taxable.
 
Eligibility
All active members of the American College of Emergency Physicians in good standing under age 60; resides in the United States and who can provide acceptable evidence of insurability are eligible to apply for coverage. All spouses of members under age 60: resides in the United States; and are not legally separated or divorced from the eligible person and who can provide acceptable evidence of insurability are also eligible to apply. Unmarried, dependent children of members who rely on those members for support, from age 15 days to 19 years (25 if a full-time student), are eligible for coverage as well. All full-time employees of members (working at least 30 hours per week) under age 60 are also eligible to apply for coverage.
 
When both spouses are eligible members, each may apply for coverage as "members"; however, coverage may not be duplicated by applying as dependents of each other. Coverage for eligible children may only be requested by one member.

Dependents' coverage begins the date you become covered or the first day of the month following approval to add such dependent, whichever date is later, and provided the required premium is paid.
 
A member or spouse must be able to perform the normal activities of a person of like age and sex in good health on the date his or her insurance is to take effect. If such is not the case, their insurance will take effect on the day the person resumes such activities.
 
Employees of members must be actively at work* on the day their coverage becomes effective. If not, their effective date will be postponed until the first day the employee resumes full time work.

Waiver of Premium for Disability If you become totally disabled before age 60 while you're covered under this program and the disability continues for six consecutive months, your life insurance will be continued in force without further premium payment while you remain disabled.

A total disability is one which prevents you from engaging in any occupation for wage or profit and must result from an injury or sickness.
