Chronic Illness Conversion Agreement (CICA)

The Chronic Illness Conversion Agreement (CICA) guarantees your client the right to add the Accelerated Death Benefit for Chronic Illness Agreement (ADB-CIA) to a policy that offers that agreement without providing evidence of insurability at the time of conversion.

Details

  • Available on Advantage Elite Select term policies
  • Face amounts: $100,000 – $5 million 
  • Issue ages: 16-60
  • Must have Extended Conversion Agreement (ECA) 
  • CICA Conversion period is the lesser of age 65 or the end of the ECA period (may differ from base life policy)

How it works

  • Your client chooses the maximum chronic illness death benefit amount that will be available upon conversion.
  • When converting to a permanent policy, your client may convert any percentage of their chronic illness benefit amount (within the parameters noted below) for chronic illness benefits with the addition of the Accelerated Death Benefit for Chronic Illness Agreement on the permanent policy. 
    • If the Accelerated Death Benefit for Chronic Illness Agreement is added at the time of conversion, a minimum of $100,000 of the CICA amount must be converted. No more than the new permanent base face amount may be converted.
    • If the term policy has the Benefit Distribution Agreement, the CICA maximum is the base face amount.
