Accident Protection Insurance Isn’t Just for Lumberjacks

1 min read
Accident Protection – Family talking on the front stoop

Accidents happen. And they’re even more likely to happen if you happen to be a lumberjack dealing with chainsaws and falling trees.

But you’re not a lumberjack, right? You’re a big fan of gravity, so rock climbing is not your kind of activity. You like dry land, so underwater cave exploration isn’t happening anytime soon. Odds are you like to play it safe most of the time.

Guess what? No matter how careful you are, if you’re age 25-34, you are 4.5 times more likely to pass away from an accident than from cancer. In fact, you’re in the age range where accidental death is your single greatest risk.*

Bottom line: Accident Protection is NOT just for the risk takers, the accident prone, or those who work in hazardous conditions.

Accident protection IS for people who want to protect their loved ones from the financial burdens of a serious and disabling injury, or unexpected death, as the result of an accident.

If you have Life Insurance, then Accident Protection can fill a gap by paying a cash benefit for a qualifying disabling injury. And if you don’t currently have a life insurance policy or if you don’t qualify for Life Insurance, then Accident Protection can offer valuable protection for a qualifying accidental death.

Gerber Life can help you prepare for the unexpected. If you’re aged 18-69, our Accident Protection insurance is easy to get, approval is guaranteed regardless of health, and it can cost as low as 17 cents per day**.

Not sure what’s right for you, Accident Protection or Life Insurance? Give us a call today at 1-866-674-3051 and we’ll help you navigate your options.
