If you receive benefits through your employer, they may include life insurance coverage. If so, great! Part of your income is covered.
Before you start celebrating, there are a few quick things that you should double check:
Even if you’ve worked through that list, there are still two major reasons to explore an insurance policy from outside your employer’s benefits package.
The Case for Individual Coverage
If either of those reasons speak to you, it could make sense to look into purchasing an additional policy.
Generally, these policies can be structured to fill in the gaps left by your current plan through work – meaning they are smaller and far more affordable than full coverage.
One last thing...
If you have changed jobs or gotten a promotion without reevaluating your insurance needs, you may want to double check what level of coverage you have.
Higher income can often lead to a lifestyle change, and if you want to maintain that for your family, you may need to adjust your coverage from your previous role or employer.
