Please keep in mind that the primary reason to purchase a life insurance product is the death benefit.

Life insurance products contain fees, such as mortality and expense charges, and may contain restrictions, such as surrender periods.

Insurance policy guarantees are subject to the financial strength and claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company.

SecureCare III may not be available in all states. For costs and further details of coverage, including the terms and conditions under which the policy may be continued in force, contact your agent/representative.

SecureCare III includes the Acceleration for Long-Term Care Agreement and Extension of Long-Term Care Agreement. These two agreements are tax qualified long-term care agreements that cover care such as nursing care, home and community-based care, and informal care as defined in the agreement. These agreements provide for the payment of a monthly benefit for qualified long-term care services. These agreements are intended to provide federally tax qualified long-term care insurance benefits under Section 7702B of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. However, due to uncertainty in the tax law, benefits paid under these agreements may be taxable.

Additional agreements may be available. Agreements may be subject to additional costs and restrictions. Agreements may not be available in all states or may exist under a different name in various states and may not be available in combination with other agreements.

To be eligible for benefits, the insured must be a chronically ill individual and have been prescribed qualified long-term care services pursuant to a plan of care prescribed by a licensed health care practitioner.

This information is meant to help you understand the SecureCare III policy, not as a means to compare with other products. The amount of benefits provided will depend upon the benefits selected and the charges will vary as such. Some provisions may not apply or may vary depending on the state in which you live at the time of policy issue. Please refer to your state’s Outline of Coverage for the exact language in your state.

This policy has exclusions, limitations and reduction of benefits, under which the policy may be continued in force or discontinued. For costs and complete details of the coverage, call or write your producer or Minnesota Life Insurance Company.

EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS You are not eligible to receive benefits if the insured’s long-term care service needs are caused directly or indirectly by, result in whole or in part, from or during, or there is contribution from:

1. alcoholism or drug addiction; or
2. war or any act of war, while the insured is serving in the military, naval or air forces of any country at war, whether declared or undeclared; or
3. active service in the armed forces or units auxiliary thereto; or
4. the insured’s active participation in a riot, insurrection or terrorist activity; or
5. committing or attempting to commit a felony; or
6. any attempt at suicide, or intentionally self-inflicted injury, while sane or insane.

PRE-EXISTING CONDITION LIMITATIONS Pre-existing condition limitations refer to any condition or disease for which the insured received medical advice or treatment within six months preceding the effective date of the Acceleration for Long-Term Care Agreement for that same condition or disease or a related condition or disease. There does not need to be a specific diagnosis for the condition or disease for it to be considered a pre-existing condition. We will not pay benefits for a pre-existing condition or disease that is not disclosed in the application for a period of six months from the effective date of this agreement. A pre-existing condition during the first six months that the agreement is in force will not be counted toward the satisfaction of the long-term care elimination period.  

SecureCare III may not cover all of the costs associated with long-term care or terminal illness that the insured incurs. This product is generally not subject to health insurance requirements. This product is not a state-approved Partnership for Long Term Care Program product and is not a Medicare Supplement policy. Receipt of a long-term care or terminal illness benefit payment under this product may adversely affect eligibility for Medicaid or other government benefits or entitlements.

The death proceeds will be reduced by a long-term care or terminal illness benefit payment under this policy. Please consult a tax advisor regarding long-term care benefit payments, terminal illness benefit payments, or when taking a loan or withdrawal from a life insurance contract.
