IDOI Helps Illinois Life Insurance Consumers Collect More Than $8 Million In Unclaimed Funds

2 years 8 months ago
CHICAGO - It’s Life Insurance Awareness Month, and the Illinois Department of Insurance (IDOI) has already helped life insurance consumers collect more than $8 Million this year from lost or unclaimed policies, using our Life Policy Locator . It’s a free tool available on the IDOI website that anyone may use to find out if they are the beneficiary of a deceased relative’s lost or missing life insurance policy or annuity contract. “Families deserve to receive the benefits that their deceased loved one provided for their financial security,” said IDOI Director Dana Popish Severinghaus. “In Illinois, insurance companies must attempt to find the beneficiaries of deceased policyholders when life insurance or annuity proceeds remain unpaid, and our life policy locator service helps simplify that search process. We urge consumers to follow the instructions available on our website to begin the search for their share of unclaimed insurance benefits.”

OSF HEALTHCARE - Did you know there’s a special health and fitness day for women? It makes total sense, specifically because there are biological differences between men and women – and women have different health needs than men. A healthy diet, daily exercise, and regular doctor visits are essential for maintaining your health, which is true regardless of gender.
