WAEPA vs FEGLI vs FegliPLUS

December 21, 2018 by seniorfeds@gmail.com

NEW 2021 FEGLI Rates!

WAEPA  vs  FEGLI vs GEBA vs  FegliPLUS 

Senior Feds still need guaranteed life insurance after they retire

A direct comparison shows that  WAEPA, GEBA and FEGLI Option B are all group plans with increasing premiums every five years until age 65.

GEBA’s rates remain level but death benefits begin decreasing by up to 50% every five years.

FEGLI Option B premiums can increase as much as 500% in only 15 years!

In addition to the increasing rates every five years, a built in problem with WAEPA and GEBA is the decreasing death benefit.

The death benefits drops significantly beginning at age 60 or 65 and continues to decrease every five years.

Healthy federal employees can now consider FegliPLUS ,  a new approach to individual life insurance.

FegliPLUS  not only locks in guaranteed, low cost premiums for 15, 20 or even 30 years, it now includes substantial lump sum payouts for Critical Illness and Chronic Care.

Covered conditions may include cancer, heart attack, stroke, kidney failure, blindness, Parkinson’s, organ transplants, ALS, MS, dementia and Alzheimer’s.

These direct comparisons, which include WAEPA’s new 50% Chronic Care rider, illustrate how FegliPLUS can reduce your premiums by 50-80%, guarantee level premiums AND  level death benefits for 20 years AND include substantial lump sum coverage for Critical Illness and Chronic Care conditions.
