Conditional Receipt
What Does Conditional Receipt Mean?
A conditional receipt is a document given to an individual who applies for an insurance policy and has made the initial premium payment. This receipt indicates that the individual will be insured only if they meet the insurability standards and receive approval from the insurance company.
Insuranceopedia Explains Conditional Receipt
A conditional receipt is issued by an insurance company after a person submits their insurance application and initial payment. However, this receipt does not legally bind the company to provide coverage. The applicant must prove their insurability by meeting certain requirements, such as passing a medical examination. Once these requirements are met, the insurance company will issue a certificate of approval, at which point the company is ready to provide coverage.
