Life insurance is something that no one likes to think about. Forty-four percent of American households would encounter significant financial difficulties within six months if they lost the primary wage earner in their family, twenty-eight percent would reach this point in one month or less, and about five in ten Americans report not having any life insurance or lacking sufficient coverage.1

Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana (Louisiana Blue) offers a range of life insurance plans for your employees to choose from.

  • Through Southern National Life Insurance Company (SNL), Louisiana Blue offers Basic Group Term Life/Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD&D) and Voluntary Term Life/AD&D for groups with 50 members or less.

Voluntary Term Life/AD&D (VGTL)

Optional employee and dependent life coverage paid for by the employee through the convenience of payroll deduction.

Did you know…

  • Voluntary plans offer extra value to employees at no added cost to the employer's company. Premiums are payroll-deducted, which means benefits are convenient for employees and economical for employers.
  • Voluntary term life insurance is a way to provide the same protection as our Basic Group Term Life in a way that is cost-effective to both employers and their employees.
  • Employers can offer voluntary term life coverage with any Basic Life plan or as a stand-alone plan.
  • This option allows employees to purchase additional coverage above what an employer may offer with our Basic Life insurance. This helps provide financial stability and would protect employees' families from some unexpected expenses, if something were to happen to them.
