Best Answer

Cash value loans will allow you to keep the policy in force and preserve coverage (sometimes for a lower benefit amount).

If you decide to cash out the surrender value instead, your policy will lapse and you lose the life insurance protection.

There is generally not a special form used for a life insurance policy issued to a physician. That said, if you are concerned with the cash surrender value, a whole life insurance policy (rather than a term life insurance policy) is implicated. The cash surrender value changes (usually increases) as the policy matures. The amount of the cash surrender value is shown on a schedule on the declarations page of the policy. The declarations page is one of the first pages of the policy which identifies the insured, the policy number, the amount of policy benefits and other information.
