How does an Accidental Death policy work?
Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD&D) insurance provides additional funds in the event of a fatal accident or an accident that results in the loss of a limb or eyesight. For benefits to be paid, the death or loss must occur within 90 days after the accident and be a direct result of bodily injury sustained from that accident, independent of all other causes.
