The 3 Types of Term Life Insurance

Many if not most people are familiar with term insurance. But, you might be wondering what “level” term insurance means. There are actually 3 different basic types of term insurance, including:

1. Level Term – Both the death benefits and premiums remain the same for the life of the term
2. Decreasing Term – The death benefits decrease at stated time intervals but premium remains constant
3. Increasing Term – Both the death benefits and premium increase at specified time intervals

But, you want to know about how much term insurance cost as you get older, so let’s jump to some quotes right away.

How Ratings, Age and Health Affect Level Term Insurance Premiums

From the above samples, you can see from the premium trend increases that the best approach to buy a term life insurance policy is to:

• Buy term insurance when you are younger
• Buy because you are still in good health

The other thing to remember is that as you age, your health begins to slip a bit as well. You might have put on few extra pounds, and start to have problems with blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and sugar levels. Even though you might exercise fairly regularly, you could still develop these higher levels or even begin to develop heart disease.

Most term life insurance policies require that you take a medical exam, which means that any decline in your health is likely going to show up in the results. Family history can also reveal whether you might be genetically inclined to inherit some health issues further down the road.

As you age and your health deteriorates, you might no longer qualify for a “preferred plus” rating. As your health deteriorates over the years, and of course that varies from person to person, you might be rated lower such as at:

• Preferred
• Standard Plus
• Standard
• Mild Substandard
• Medium Substandard
• Severe Substandard
