Your Family's Passport to Financial Security
Life insurance can be one of the cornerstones of financial planning. In the event of an unexpected or premature death, the HSBA Group Annual Term Life Insurance Plan can help provide the financial security your family needs. This life insurance helps make sure they’ll be able to meet current expenses—such as mortgage and car payments—as well as future expenses such as college tuition.
Valuable Benefits
ELIGIBILITY
All HSBA members/employees under age 60 may apply for coverage for themselves, their spouse age 60 or under and all unmarried dependent children ages 14 days to 21 years (25 if a full-time student).
A dependent who is also a member/employee is eligible for either member/employee or dependent coverage, but not both. If both member/employee and spouses are covered as members/employees, neither may insure the other as spouse and only one may insure any eligible children.

PLAN FEATURES
Accelerated Life Benefit
This important plan option gives you the ability to collect part of your HSBA Group Annual Term Life benefits before your death if your doctor diagnoses you with a terminal illness, as defined in the certificate, and a life expectancy of six months or less. You can collect 50 percent of your benefits (or $100,000, whichever is less) before you die–to use however you wish.
You must have at least $10,000 in Life Insurance coverage in force to qualify for this benefit.
This money can be used to help cover high prescription drug costs…medical bills…outstanding debts…to help pay for experimental treatments…the cost of modifications to your home…or for a family vacation – the choice is yours.
Receipt of accelerated benefit may be taxable, or may adversely affect your eligibility for Medicaid or other government benefits. You should consult your personal tax advisor to assess the impact of this benefit.
Waiver of Premium
If you become totally disabled, as defined in the certificate, for 6 months or longer before age 60, your coverage and benefits will continue at no cost to you – for as long as you’re disabled or until you reach age 75 (members/spouses) or until the date of your retirement (employees) – whichever is first.
Keep Your Cost Manageable
Rates have been provided on a monthly basis per $1,000 of coverage to make it easier for you to compare this Plan with other insurance plans on the market today. Four modes of payment are available to suit your budget: quarterly billing, semiannual billing or annual billing; and our Monthly Pre–Authorized Check Payment Plan.
