Policyholder Information
Company Overview
National Heritage Life (NHL) specialized in the sale of tax-deferred annuities and interest-sensitive life insurance products. The company was placed in rehabilitation in 1994 and in liquidation a year later. In two assumption reinsurance transactions, the state life and health insurance guaranty associations helped arrange for the transfer of all covered obligations in 1996 (see below).
If you have any questions, please contact your state life and health insurance guaranty association.
Policy & Claims Administration
Policies of an insolvent company are often transferred to a financially sound insurance company. If policies are not transferred to another company, the policies are continued and claims administered by either the guaranty associations or a third-party administrator (TPA) working on behalf of the associations. Please contact the company/TPA listed below or the guaranty association in your state of residence for more information about your policy.
