SUPPLEMENT TERM LIFE INSURANCE
Plan Materials
Overview
You can purchase additional life insurance coverage in multiples of your salary through Supplemental Term Life Insurance. Coverage for your dependents is also available through this plan.
During your initial enrollment period, guaranteed coverage amounts are available without the need for Evidence of Insurability (EOI). Refer to the page that follows for a description of Guaranteed Issue Amounts (GIA) by the applicable situation. If you waive coverage during your initial enrollment, EOI will be required if you later decide to enroll. EOI is also needed if your application for coverage exceeds the GIA. If the amount of coverage you request exceeds the GIA, the excess amount will not be effective unless or until The Hartford approves.
