A10-year level term life insurance policyhas a fixed premium and a fixed face amount (death benefit) for the entire 10-year term. The premium and death benefit remain constant, and there is no cash value or dividend accumulation, as term life is not a participating policy.

Option A: Incorrect. Conversion to whole life is an optional rider, not automatic at the end of the term.

Option B: Incorrect. In a level term policy, the premium does not increase during the term; it remains constant.

Option C: Incorrect. Term life policies do not pay dividends or accumulate cash value, so the face amount does not increase.

Option D: Correct. Both the premium and the $100,000 face amount remain constant for the 10-year term.

Other options like at-home recovery or prescription drugs are not core benefits, and preventive care is covered by Medicare, not Medigap.

Option A: Correct. The first 3 pints of blood is a core Medigap benefit.

Option B: Incorrect. At-home recovery is not a standard core benefit in most Medigap plans.

Option C: Incorrect. Prescription drug coverage is not a core Medigap benefit; it’s covered by Medicare Part D.

Option D: Incorrect. Preventive care is covered by Medicare Part B, not a core Medigap benefit.

This question falls under the Prometric content outline section on “Medicare,” which covers Medigap benefits.

Alevel term-to-age-65 life insurance policyprovides a fixed death benefit until the insured reaches age 65, as long as premiums are paid.

Option B: Incorrect. $100,000 is not the policy’s face amount.

Option C: Incorrect. $150,000 is not the policy’s face amount.

A rider is an amendment to an insurance policy that modifies its coverage. In the context of life insurance, thefamily rider(also known as a family term rider) provides term life insurance coverage for the insured’s spouse and children under the primary insured’s policy. This rider is commonly offered to extend protection to family members without requiring separate policies.

Option A: Incorrect. The payor benefit rider waives premiums if the policyowner (often a parent) becomes disabled or dies, typically used in juvenile policies. It does not provide coverage for family members.

Option B: Correct. The family rider adds term life coverage for the insured’s spouse and children, ensuring they are protected under the same policy.

Option C: Incorrect. The jumping juvenile rider increases the death benefit of a juvenile policy at a specified age (e.g., 21) without additional underwriting. It applies only to the child, not the spouse.

Option D: Incorrect. The guaranteed insurability rider allows the insured to purchase additional coverage at specified intervals without proving insurability, but it does not cover family members.

Ordinary life insurance, synonymous with whole life insurance, is a level premium permanent insurance product that accumulates a cash value (or reserve) over time. By design, the cash value grows and, at the policy’s maturity (typically age 100 or 121, depending on the policy), equals the face amount of the policy, at which point the policy endows (pays out the face amount to the policyowner if the insured is still alive).

Option A: Correct. The cash value (reserve) in a whole life policy eventually equals the face amount at maturity.

Option B: Incorrect. Dividends are paid only in participating policies, not all whole life policies, and are not guaranteed.

Option C: Incorrect. The cash value continues to earn interest or grow, typically at a guaranteed rate, until maturity.

Option D: Incorrect. There are no mandatory cash value distributions; policyowners can choose to access the cash value.

This question aligns with the Prometric content outline under “Life Products,” which covers the cash value accumulation in whole life insurance.

Option A: Correct. The interest only option pays earnings to the beneficiary while retaining the proceeds.

Option B: Incorrect. Lump sum pays the entire proceeds at once.
