An unexpected injury-related accident could mean a trip to the emergency room. And unanticipated, uncovered, after-treatment ER bills can add up quick. Your major medical insurance will help with many of your expenses, but wouldn't you feel better knowing you'll have extra help paying some of your bill?

Accident Insurance, underwritten by Transamerica Life Insurance Company, pays you a benefit to help cover your out-of-pocket expenses so you can focus more on getting well and less on the extra expenses an accident can bring. Benefits include:

• Pays benefits for multiple numerous types of injuries related to accidents.
• Employee group rates: You pay just $11.60/per paycheck.
• Eligible spouse/domestic partner and children can be insured too.
• Guaranteed acceptance with no medical exam if you enroll during the Enrollment Period.

Thanks to your employer’s group rates, you’ll pay less for this insurance than you would for individual insurance you’d find on your own.

All Disability Income Riders
Benefits are not payable for a disability that is caused by or occurs as the result of one of:

• Disability that is being treated outside the territorial limits of the United States or, if outside of the United States, the territorial limits of the place where this rider was issued.
• Any disability which begins after termination of coverage. This will not be considered a continuation of a previous disability and will not be covered under the contract.

Total disability exists when under the regular care and attendance of a physician for necessary treatment of a covered accident or sickness and not actually engaged in any substantially gainful occupation.

Total disability must begin while rider is in force and ends when released by a physician to return to work.
Total disability is the inability to:

• Employed Full-Time: engage in or perform all of the material and substantial occupational duties.
• Not Employed Full-Time: perform two or more ADLs (bathing, continence, dressing, eating, toileting and
• transferring) without direct personal assistance, as certified by a physician, each time the activity is performed.

If more than one disability benefit is in force with us, rider benefits are reduced so that the total benefit from all disability coverage does not exceed 80% of a person's monthly compensation. Premium paid for disability benefits in excess of 80% will be refunded.

Sickness-Only Disability Income Rider
Benefits are not payable for a disability that is caused by, or occurs as the result of, childbirth or charges related to normal pregnancy within 10 months of the rider's effective date. Pregnancy complications are covered to the same extent as any other sickness.

No benefits are provided during the first 12 months for any sickness that has been diagnosed, treated, or for which the Insured has incurred expense or has taken medication within 12 months prior to this rider's effective date.

Termination of Coverage
Subject to the Portability Option, insurance coverage on the employee will end on the earliest of:

• the date of his or her death;
• the date he or she ceases to be eligible for coverage;
• the last date for which premium payment has been made to us, subject to the grace period;
• the date he or she terminates employment;
• the date the group master policy terminates;
• the date he or she sends us a written notice to cancel coverage.

The insurance coverage on a dependent will cease on the earliest of:

• the date of the employee's death;
• the date the employee's coverage terminates;
• the last date for which premium payment has been made to us, subject to the grace period;
• the date the dependent no longer meets the definition of dependent;
• the date the certificate is modified so as to exclude dependent coverage;
• the date the employee sends us a written notice to cancel coverage on a dependent.

Extension of Benefits
Whenever termination of coverage under this section occurs due to termination of employment, such termination will be without prejudice to:

• any hospital confinement which began while coverage was in force; or
• any covered treatment or service for which benefits would be provided and which began while coverage was in force; provided, however that the covered person is and continues to be hospital confined or receiving treatment.

Such Extension of Benefits will continue for up to the earlier of:

• 30 days; or
• the date on which the covered person is no longer hospitalized or receiving treatment.

Portability Option
If an employee loses eligibility for this insurance for any reason other than nonpayment of premiums, coverage can be continued by paying the premiums directly to us within 31 days after termination. We will bill the employee directly once we receive notification to continue coverage.

Termination of the Group Master Policy
The policyholder may end the policy on any premium due date by submitting a 60-day advance written notice. A group will not be continued if it drops below the minimum required participation. The group master policy will be terminated and coverage of all remaining insureds will end, subject to the Portability Option.

If a person already has accident insurance with us, such person is not eligible to apply for this coverage.
