Ella: Oh, so it’s like a safety net for policyholders if they can’t afford to pay premiums anymore?

Ella: That sounds helpful. Are there any eligibility requirements for a waiver of premium?
Arthur: Yes, typically, policyholders need to provide proof of disability or inability to work as specified in the insurance contract.
Ella: I see. So, how does a waiver of premium benefit policyholders?
Arthur: A waiver of premium provides peace of mind, knowing that their insurance coverage will continue even if they are unable to work and pay premiums.
Ella: Thanks for explaining, Arthur. A waiver of premium seems like an important feature for insurance policies.
Arthur: No problem, Ella. It’s a valuable protection that can provide financial security during challenging times.
