Waiver Of Restoration Premium

What Does Waiver Of Restoration Premium Mean?

A waiver of restoration premium is a provision in an insurance policy that allows the policyholder, after receiving benefits from a claim, to maintain the same level of coverage as before the payout. Without this waiver, the policyholder may need to pay an additional premium to retain the same level of coverage.

Conversely, a policy may no longer provide coverage once claim payouts have reached its limits. Some policies specify maximum limits for both individual events and the overall policy term. If restoring coverage is not an option, policyholders can consider purchasing secondary or supplemental policies to mitigate the risk of a lapse or lack of coverage when the primary policy reaches its limits.
