Additional Features This insurance offering from your employer and MetLife comes with additional features that can provide assistance to you and your family. Accelerated Benefits Option10 For access to funds during a difficult time If you become terminally ill and are diagnosed with 24 months or less to live, you have the option to receive up to 80% of your life insurance proceeds. This can go a long way towards helping your family meet medical and other expenses at a difficult time. Amounts not accelerated will continue under your employer’s plan for as long as you remain eligible per the certificate requirements and the group policy remains in effect. The accelerated life insurance benefits offered under your certificate are intended to qualify for favorable tax treatment under Section 101(g) of the Internal Revenue Code (26 U.S.C.Sec 101(g)).11 Accelerated Benefits Option is not the same as long term care insurance (LTC). LTC provides nursing home care, home-health care, personal or adult day care for individuals above age 65 or with chronic or disabling conditions that require constant supervision. The Accelerated Benefits Option is also available to spouses/state-registered domestic partners insured under Dependent Life insurance plans. This option is not available for dependent child coverage.
