Answers to Your Questions About Insurance Riders

An insurance rider is a provision in an insurance policy allowing for amendments to its terms and/or coverage. Riders have no independent existence, and have force and effect only when they are attached to a policy. An insurance rider can be used to provide additional benefits not found in the original contract or can be used to exclude certain benefits. Riders that add additional or specialized coverage come at the cost of an additional premium amount.

Riders are found in many Life Insurance Policies, Health Insurance Policies, and Home Insurance Policies. Life insurance riders commonly add specialized benefits to a Life Insurance Policy for an additional premium cost. Health insurance riders commonly exclude coverage for conditions that are pre-existing and do not increase the premium cost. Riders added to Home Insurance policies usually provide additional coverage for high dollar items such as jewelry or other valuables and do cause the premium amount to increase.
