AAA Life Insurance coverage options
Term life insurance: AAA’s traditional term life requires a medical exam to qualify and offers coverage from $100,000 to more than $5 million. “ExpressTerm” requires answeritang health questions but no medical exam; coverage options range from $25,000 to $250,000. ExpressTerm policies can be purchased online. AAA members can get a discount of at least $60 a year on ExpressTerm.
Whole life insurance: Simplified issue and guaranteed issue whole life policies provide coverage of $5,000 to $25,000. Neither requires a medical exam to qualify, although you must answer health questions to buy simplified whole life. Applicants ages 45 to 85 can qualify for the guaranteed issue product automatically, but if the insured dies during the first two years, AAA will not pay out the full policy amount, unless the death is accidental. AAA members and their spouses are eligible for a $60 annual discount on guaranteed issue whole life.
Universal life insurance: Coverage amounts start at $25,000. Two types of universal life policies are offered: LifeTime and Accumulator. Both are permanent policies that last your entire life and build cash value. The Accumulator policy features greater flexibility and greater potential for building cash value than the LifeTime policy. The LifeTime product is geared toward people who are well-prepared financially for retirement and whose main objective is to increase the inheritance they leave. The Accumulator product is geared toward people who may want to use the cash value later to supplement retirement or cover other expenses, such as their children’s college education.
