Common use of EXTENDED COVERAGE TO ELIGIBLE DEPENDENTS UPON DEATH OF POLI Clause in Contracts

EXTENDED COVERAGE TO ELIGIBLE DEPENDENTS UPON DEATH OF POLI. CYHOLDER: In the event of the death of the policyholder, the insurer will pro- vide continued coverage for the surviving dependents insured under this policy by affording two (2) years worth of coverage at no charge if the cause of the death of the policyholder results from a covered condition under this policy. This benefit only applies to covered dependents under the existing policy, and will automatically terminate in the event of marriage of the surviving spouse/ domestic partner, or for surviving dependents who are not otherwise eligible for coverage under this policy and/or are issued their own separate policy. This extended coverage does not apply to any optional rider. The extended coverage goes into effect as per the next renewal date or anniversary date, whichever comes first, after the death of the policyholder.
