Illinois Life Insurance

 

Life Insurance Laws in Illinois are more designed to protect residents from claims instead of regulating the actual policies and coverage's like is done on many other types of Illinois Insurance.

 

Most all laws regarding Life Insurance are covered under Act 5 of the Insurance Code of Illinois.  This is where Illinois residents are guaranteed benefits like a 10 day free look.  A 10 day free look offers a consumer the right to cancel their life insurance policy, with in 10 days, for a full refund of their premiums.

 

Another mandated coverage for all Illinois Life Insurance Companies is for them to pay claims within 30 days.  If the claim is not paid in 30 days the claim will begin to accrue interest.  Policy holders can have their medical records given to a doctor of their choice, though they are not necessarily allowed to see them.

 

In Illinois, Life Insurance companies will pay fees to join the Illinois Life and Health Guaranty Association.  This association protects the consumers from the insurance company going broke and not being able to pay claims.  The association offers maximum pay outs of $300,000 per person for a life insurance death claim, and $100,000 for losses of cash surrender value.  All Illinois Life Insurance Companies must be licensed to be listed by this association so you can feel comfortable with the quality of company you are dealing with.

 

Illinois does offer some protections for Life Insurance Companies, one of which allows life insurance companies to terminate a policy, up to 2 years from when it was effective, for false statements made on the application.  Death by suicide is not covered for the first 2 years.  In Illinois there is no limit on the amount of time it takes for an insurance company to investigate a claim.

Finding the Right Illinois Life Insurance Professional

 

A large part of the process is working with the right agent.  Start by asking for referrals to Illinois licensed agents from your accountants and/or attorneys. The attorney and accountant would be putting there reputation on the line if your future Illinois life insurance agent was unprofessional.

 

Does the Illinois agent have any professional designations? If an agent has one or more professional designations, it means that person has sought advanced training, passed rigorous exams and is serious about his or her professional growth and development. Keep in mind, though, that Illinois professional designations are just one factor to consider when choosing an Illinois agent. There are plenty of excellent Illinois insurance agents who haven't earned professional designations, so don't assume that one Illinois agent is better than another simply on the basis of earned designations, which are generally displayed as initials after his/her name.

 

Go through the following links to learn what some of the designations indicate:

Chartered Life Underwriter (CLU)

Life Underwriter Training Council Fellow (LUTCF)

Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC)

Accredited Estate Planner (AEP)

Certified Financial Planner (CFP)

Registered Health Underwriter (RHU)

 

One other consideration is to ask whether the IL agent is a member of any professional organizations. This shows that the Illinois agent is actively involved in developing his or her skills and staying on top of the latest industry trends and developments. The three most prominent organizations are listed below:

National Association of Insurance and Financial Advisors (NAIFA)

The Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT)

Association for Advanced Life Underwriting (AALU)

Try blending your coverage to meet your current needs and future needs.  This means that you will have some term life insurance and also some permanent life insurance.  When you are young and the mortgage is high it is important to protect your family against loss.  The permanent insurance will last a lifetime and allow for protection throughout retirement years.

 

QuicklyQuoteMe recommends sitting down with our licensed professionals to determine which level of blend will work for your family.  Take the time to plan a budget and lock in those rates.  Fill out an online form and speak to one of our agents directly, they all come highly recommended!
