SECTION 4.1611. Reduced Benefits

Latest version.

The insurer must pay the death benefit under an eligible policy if the insured dies within one year of the date of lapse and the requirements for submitting proof of mental incapacity and request for reinstatement are met. The insurer must reduce the death benefit under a policy that is eligible for reinstatement under this subchapter by the amount of premiums due and unpaid on the date of death, plus interest on such premiums at the reinstatement interest rate, if there is an uncontroverted claim for benefits that exceeds the amount of premiums and interest owed.
