1+1 equals more financial protection

Employees get guaranteed issue on new product packages

Printer-Friendly Version

Updated: 09/10/2012

Get ready to help your team make it easier for employees to choose financial protection. Now you can officially offer these two product packages with guaranteed issue:

• Financial Foundation -- Disability 1000 and Universal Life 1000
• Health Foundation -- Group Critical Care 1.0 and Accident 1.0

Many of our competitors offer product bundles, and now you and your salespeople have the opportunity to offer these guaranteed issue product packages.

• For employees who lack sufficient coverage, certain combinations of our products can help cover employees in vulnerable areas. Many working Americans don’t have the savings to deal with the financial effects resulting from a serious sickness or injury. Our “Foundation” packages can accelerate employees’ coverage and better prepare them for life’s unexpected turns.
• For employers, our product packages are a simple way to help provide an additional layer in employees’ financial safety nets.
• For brokers, you’re adding an easy solution for helping employees choose coverage and get guaranteed issue.

For you and your salespeople, these product packages are a good fit with smaller accounts that don’t have comprehensive benefits packages. The package approach also gives you another reason to go back to brokers to show them something new. Order the decision-maker flier (100791), the Employee Financial Foundation flier (100788) and the Employee Health Foundation flier (100789).

You'll find more information and details on Propr in the Underwriting section. Also, be on the lookout for decision-maker presentation slides and September training webinars.
