Monthly Personal Accident Insurance Rates
(effective January 1, 2009)
How to
Calculate Your Monthly Rate
|
| Step One
Choose the amount of coverage you want. |
Example
Jane wants to know what it would cost if she chooses coverage
equal to $80,000 for herself only or for herself and her family. |
|
| Step Two
Divide the amount of your total coverage ("your principal
amount") by $10,000. |
$80,000 ÷ $10,000 = 8
|
|
| Step Three
Multiply the result by the appropriate rate:
|
|
| |
8
x $0.17 = $1.36
Jane will pay $1.36 per month for coverage for herself.
|
|
|
8
x $0.28 = $2.24
Jane will pay $2.24 per month for family coverage. |
| This gives you your monthly contribution
rate. |
|
| Once you reach age
70, you cannot increase coverage and the elected coverage
is available in reduced amounts.
The reduction factors are:
| Age |
% of reduction |
| 70-74 |
65 |
| 75-79 |
45 |
| 80-84 |
30 |
| 85 and over |
15 |
The reduction will take place at the end of
the calendar year in which the limiting age is attained. |
