Financial security

Peace of mind comes from knowing that you’re prepared for the future to the best of your ability, and a significant piece of that strategy is your financial plan.

That’s why Asurion provides a 401(k) retirement savings account for employees, and offers you expert financial advice through Financial Finesse. As you’re assessing your healthcare needs, take the time to plan for the financial security of yourself and your loved ones using these tools and resources.

The names “Accident, Critical Illness and Hospital Indemnity Insurance” make most people think these optional coverages round out your medical insurance plan. Actually, these three provide a cash payment should you or a covered dependent suffer a condition as defined by the plans. Click the links above to learn more.

You have basic Life and Accidental Death and Dismemberment insurance provided by Asurion, as well as buy-up coverage options. You also may choose group universal life insurance coverage with a long-term care provision. Click the link above to learn more.

It’s become common for adults today to be caring for their children and their parents or grandparents at once. That’s why we’re offering group universal life insurance in addition to Asurion-provided and supplemental life insurance. Besides the typical death benefit payout you would expect from a life insurance plan, this voluntary coverage includes a long-term care (LTC) provision that is paid whether care is provided through a nursing home or assisted living facility; by a licensed home health provider; or a loved one.

The Group Universal Life policy, which is available to employees and spouses, is portable, payout is unrestricted and benefit rates will not increase with age. All coverage is guaranteed for individuals up to age 80; there is no medical screening or testing required.

Coverage level options

  • Employees may choose coverage of $50,000, $100,000 or $200,000
  • Spouses may choose coverage of $30,000 if employee chooses coverage

The policy includes an Accelerated Death Benefit for Chronic Condition Rider, which allows you to access a portion of your life insurance benefit every month when you or your spouse cannot perform your regular activities for daily living, like bathing, getting dressed or eating. You can receive 4% of your life insurance policy value per month for up to 25 months if you lose the ability to perform two or more activities of daily living (ADLs). This provision may be extended, up to 25 months (50 months total), if needed. In this case, the carrier will issue a 25% paid-up life policy.

When you have an illness or injury, Short- and Long-Term Disability provides financial protection by replacing a portion your income.

Asurion provides basic STD benefits automatically to eligible employees. You’re automatically enrolled in these benefits.
