TransElite Universal Life

What is TransElite Universal Life?

As your lives change (marriage, birth of a child, new job, retirement or medical emergency), so will their life insurance needs. A flexible universal life insurance policy can help ensure that you are diligently working to address your current and long-term financial needs. This insurance is fully portable/convertible, allowing employees to keep their policy after retirement or taking another job, as long as they continue to pay their premium.

Living Healthcare Needs

These benefits allow the policy owner to accelerate a portion of the life insurance death benefit when certified by a physician as chronically or terminally ill. Those extra “living” benefits can be used to help pay expenses from an unexpected medical crisis and help alleviate the worry of future financial problems.
