Although "health rider" is not really a term of art in the US life insurance market, in other places it refers to something like a critical illness policy that is annexed to a life insurance policy. If the insured becomes ill or injured from a cause covered by the rider, the rider may allow the insured access to the life insurance proceeds to assist in the payment of medical expenses as they accrue.

A rider of any sort usually is for the same duration as the policy. Therefore, as long as premiums are paid for the policy (and for the rider if it requires an additional premium), and the coverages began at the same time, they should be coterminous. Keep in mind, though, that the terms and conditions of the insurance contract always prevail.
