Many term or group term life insurance policies provide a conversion clause, which allows the covered person to purchase a permanent life insurance policy at the same medical condition rates you have on the term policy. The rates would be based on your attained age at the time of your conversion but if you health had deteriorated, it is still a good benefit.

The amount of reduction is based on the term premiums paid during the 12 months prior to the conversion. The carrier can elect to give you a credit on a portion of those premiums paid based on a few factors, such as the age of the term insurance policy, or the type of policy you are converting to.


Can a spendthrift clause be added to a life policy once it is in force?

Generally, a spendthrift clause cannot be added to a life insurance policy once it is in force. Such clauses are typically established at the time the policy is issued and are intended to protect the death benefit from creditors and to control how the benefits are distributed to beneficiaries. If a spendthrift clause is desired, it usually needs to be included in the initial policy agreement or a new policy may need to be issued with the clause included. Always consult with the insurance provider for specific options and implications.
