Whole Life Insurance pays a benefit to your beneficiary if you pass away. The insurance coverage you purchase and the payment amounts are guaranteed to be fixed for the life of the policy as long as you meet the required premium payments. Once cash value accumulates, you can borrow against that value at the rate shown in the policy. The death benefit will be reduced by the amount of any outstanding loan and unpaid accrued interest.
Your Premier Whole Life Insurance includes the following benefits and riders:
Designed to allow you to receive an accelerated payment of your death benefit if you are receiving qualified care to assist with daily living, including home health care, adult day care or confinement to a long term care facility. Receipt of the accelerated benefit may be taxable, or may adversely affect your eligibility for Medicaid or other government benefits. You should consult your personal tax advisor to assess the impact of this benefit.
Voya Cares® is not insurance coverage. It is a service offered through the Voya family of companies.
What is Whole Life Insurance?
Whole Life Insurance is an individual life insurance policy that pays a benefit to your beneficiary if you pass away. Your premium payments will stay the same for the life of the policy, as long as you meet the required premium payments. Plus, the policy builds cash value, which you can borrow against. Any unpaid loan would be subtracted from the benefit that is paid to your beneficiary.

Miles and Alex spent their lives building their careers, raising two boys, and participating in community organizations. The year before they were both set to retire, Alex was diagnosed with an aggressive and terminal cancer. Fortunately, Miles had purchased Premier Whole Life Insurance for himself and Alex years ago. After Alex passed, Miles was able to use Alex’s life insurance benefit to cover their funeral expenses and pay off the remaining mortgage. There was even enough money for Miles to invest in retirement.
