Introduction
Life insurance or life assurance is a contract between the policy owner and the insurer, where the insurer agrees to pay a designated beneficiary a sum of money upon the occurrence of the insured individual's or individuals' death or other event, such as terminal illness or critical illness. In return, the policy owner agrees to pay a stipulated amount at regular intervals or in lump sums. There may be designs in some countries where bills and death expenses plus catering for after funeral expenses should be included in Policy Premium. In the United States, the predominant form simply specifies a lump sum to be paid on the insured's demise.
Life insurance made its first appearance in England in sixteenth century, the first

United States Life may extend the grace period by written notice for missed or late payments. Dr. Griffith made timely payments through 2006. Dr. Griffith missed his May, 2007 payment. American Medical Association sent Dr. Griffith a reminder notice stating that a payment was to be made by 60 days to assure coverage.

A price tag of care for four more months of added life under Medicare coverage, may seem as an easy decision to approve based on the policies that are set. Really, on the surface we know that if you are on Medicare there is no question that you will receive the treatments that you need. Then there are those that may view this cost as it relates to government spending as an illogical expenditure for simply extending one’s life. It is with an argument such as this that particularly prompts into question the idea of what policy is in place for such funding of treatments that are covered by the Medicare program.

Life insurance plays a critical role in an individual’s estate planning. One of the main reasons for this is to create liquidity or cash flow. Traditionally, assets in an estate are non-liquid assets such as business interests or personal property, including real estate. At the time of death, expenses and estate taxes, can be overwhelming for heirs to find the cash to pay. If this is the case, then the estate assets must be either sold or used as collateral in taking out a loan to pay the taxes. Another factor is that estate taxes must be paid within a certain time frame, typically 6-9 months after the estate payout. (IRS, IRS.gov, 2015)

The reason for life insurance is to safeguard the most valued asset a young investor has, human capital. The investor is protecting his future earnings against lifetime uncertainty. In the event of passing away, the insured’s heirs or dependents will be given a sum of money to replace the wages he provided. Commonly, policies are bought to hedge against the mortality risk, “so human capital affects both optimal asset allocation and demand for life insurance.” Mortality risk is hedged by life insurance because the more human capital an investor has, the more life insurance he will need. This is perfect because of the negative 100 percent correlation the consumption (alive) and bequest (dead) state have with one another.
Deductibles, coinsurance, policy limits and exclusions are examples of contractual provisions that limit insurance coverage. Deductible, which consists of per occurrence deductible and aggregate deductible, is the expenses that the insured have to pay before the insurance company covers the remaining costs. Coinsurance, on the other hand, is a co-sharing agreement between the insured and the insurer in which the insured pays a share of the payment made against a claim. A policy limit, which is also one of the contractual provisions, is defined as the maximum amount that the insurer will pay. In deductible, insurer pays losses before the losses are reimbursed but in a self-insured retention (SIR), the insured pays the losses up to deductible. In commercial policies, if the SIR is relatively large, then the policy is called an excess policy and the SIR is called the attachment point. When an insured is
