Optional AD&D Coverage
You can add $40,000 of Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD&D) to your USBA-sponsored Group Life coverage for $2.00 per month. This optional coverage is available to Members, Spouses and Associate Members. (Children must be age 18-22 to qualify for Associate Membership.)
AD&D Benefit
The full coverage amount--$40,000--is payable for accidental loss of life, the loss of both hands or feet, the sight of both eyes, or any two of the preceding. Half the coverage amount--$20,000--is payable for the loss of one hand or foot or the sight of one eye.
The loss must be the direct result of a covered accident that occurs while coverage is in force and within 90 days of the accident. Loss of a hand or foot means severance at or above the wrist or ankle. Loss of sight means its total and permanent loss. No more than $40,000 will be paid for all losses from any one accident.
AD&D coverage ends on the June 1st following the insured's 66th birthday or earlier if the insured ceases to be insured under a USBA-sponsored Group Life Plan.
Exclusions
AD&D benefits are not provided for losses due to air travel, unless the insured is riding solely as a passenger. Other exclusions include losses due to war; insurrection; riot; terrorist activity; commission of a felony or assault; illegal use of drugs, hallucinogens, etc.; use of alcohol; sickness or disease or its medical or surgical treatment; intentionally self-inflicted injuries; or suicide. AD&D benefits may not be denied due to suicide if insane, unless it can be shown that the insured intended to commit suicide at the time coverage was requested. |
