Utah Life Producer Practice Exam

The guaranteed insurability rider is a feature in some life insurance policies that allows the policyholder to purchase additional coverage at specified times without having to prove insurability. This means that as life circumstances change, such as a new job or family addition, the insured can increase their coverage without undergoing medical exams or answering health questions.

The statement indicating that this rider is available only at additional premium is not accurate. While many riders may require an additional premium, the guaranteed insurability rider specifically provides a valuable benefit that is often incorporated into the policy with no additional cost during the initial coverage. The intent of such a rider is to help policyholders maintain adequate coverage in response to their changing needs without the burden of extra costs for the added flexibility it offers.

Other options correctly describe the guaranteed insurability rider's characteristics. For example, it indeed provides options for future insurability by allowing the purchase of more coverage at certain times. It can also be added to specific types of policies (for instance, whole life or term policies), depending on the insurer. It's important for agents and policyholders to understand these nuances to effectively utilize this feature in their financial planning.
