Life insurance question

All hypothetical.
Lets say you have a million dollar life insurance policy and you get some rare disease where you have a 99% chance of survival with a cure but it is extremely expensive ($100k) but without you will die. Could you get the life insurance company to pay for the treatment? Since after all 100k<1 million.

No way. They will still have to pay off when you die of something else.

No sir but if you have whole life you may have a cash balance you can borrow against

Viaticle settlement.

Some policies have an accelerated death benefit rider-- most at no additional cost. They usually have separate tiers(i.e. critical illness, terminal illness, disability, etc). Different illnesses will warrant different accelerated benefits.
The downside is the policy is terminated after you accept the accelerated death benefit.

Some policies have an accelerated death benefit and some you can sell- it is called a Viatical settlement. Every company is different- check and see what you have.
