• The Advantages
• The high cost of insurance is forcing some employers to drop life
insurance coverage or look for alternatives to providing group life
coverage
• List Bill provides an opportunity for employees to purchase life
insurance, without businesses funding the cost
• Additionally, payroll deduction through an employer provides a
convenient and easy way for employees to obtain individual coverage
• Potentially, leading to consistent long-term business
