USAA Life Insurance Company Introduces First Digital Life Insurance Product

SAN ANTONIO --(November 8, 2021) USAA Life Insurance Company (USAA Life) today announced the introduction of a new digital-only acquisition life insurance product—with no medical exam required.

USAA Life’s Essential Term Life Insurance (ETLI) is available to consumers age 21-35 starting at $15 per month, with small cost increases each year and only requires the completion of nine simple health questions. If eligible, the $100,000 policy is approved instantly and coverage lasts until the policy anniversary following the insured’s 39th birthday. The product will initially be available only in Texas, with an expansion to nearly all states planned in early 2022.

Monthly cost and not requiring a medical exam are important factors when deciding on a life insurance company, according to USAA’s recent “Life Can’t Wait” survey. Approximately 58 percent of respondents said that cost was the single most important factor. Not requiring a medical exam was cited by 24 percent of respondents.

“We know that one of the biggest pain points in getting life insurance is a medical exam,” says Rob Schaffer, vice president and general manager for life insurance at USAA Life. “With this new product, we’re making it easier for younger consumers to get the life protection they need.”
