What Is Life Insurance?

Medicare Part A is hospital coverage. If you or your spouse paid Medicare taxes for a decade or more, you qualify for Part A premium-free. Medicare Part A includes hospice care, skilled nursing, hospice, and sometimes home healthcare. There’s currently a $1,408 deductible when you’re admitted into hospital care.  

Why Do You Need Life Insurance?

Life insurance can feel complicated, but it’s actually quite simple. When you buy a life insurance policy, you must pay monthly or yearly payments to the company, known as premiums. It ensures a secure future for your family after your demise. Here are some of the benefits:

  • The death benefit payouts are tax-free
  • Life insurance can cover your funeral expenses
  • It can cover your terminal and chronic illness debts

Cost

The cost of life insurance depends on the factors like age, sex, health, and lifestyle. For instance, if you’re a smoker or you take up a risky hobby like skydiving, your life insurance rates will be higher. And when it comes to choosing a beneficiary who will benefit from this policy, you can either choose one single person or multiple beneficiaries, each receiving a fixed percentage of the benefit.

After the death of the policyholder, their beneficiaries can contact the insurance company after completing all the paperwork, including the death certificate and the copy of the policy. The money will be transferred within 30 days after the initiation.

The Two Primary Types of Life Insurance

There is a wide market when it comes to life insurance policies. However, there are two major types of life insurance that you can benefit from.

Whole Life Insurance

  • Whole life insurance is a life-long policy that starts from when you buy it to the time you pass away.
  • Whole life insurance includes a cash value element that grows tax-deferred.
  • Upon your death, your beneficiaries are paid money, called the death benefit.
  • If your health changes, you can access the cash value while you’re still alive.
  • It’s more expensive than term life insurance due to its permanent duration.

Term Life Insurance

  • Term life insurance is a policy that you buy for a fixed amount of time, for example, 10 or 20 years.
  • This policy provides a death benefit only if the insured dies during that specified period when the policy is still active.
  • There is no cash value; only death benefits will be given to the beneficiaries.
  • Term life insurance is much less expensive than whole life insurance, perfect for young families.
