Life & Health Guaranty Associations

Every state has a Guaranty Association to help pay the claims of financially impaired insurance companies. State laws specify the lines of insurance covered by these funds and the dollar limits payable. Coverage is usually for individual policyholders and their beneficiaries and not for values held in unallocated group contracts. Most states also restrict insurance agents and companies from advertising the funds’ availability. The details presented below are intended to be used for general information purposes only.

There are many issues, too numerous to describe here, which determine the type and extent of coverage available. You are advised to consult your state insurance department for details about any policy you consider purchasing. Another source of information is the National Organization of Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Associations (NOLHGA, 13873 Park Center Road, Suite 329, Herndon, VA 22071). http://www.nolhga.com/factsandfigures/main.cfm/location/stateinfo
