The only exception is usually suicide within the first two years of getting the policy. Life insurance sets itself apart from accidental death insurance in that it pays for death by any illness, natural causes, or death by any other reason.Answered on May 12, 2013flag this answer

McNeil Insurance Services, Fresno, CaliforniaLife insurance benefits are paid whenever an insured dies during the period of time that the policy is “in force.” There is exclusion against suicide in the first couple of years and there are times when the company might contest a claim based upon misrepresentation but that would rarely be affected by someone dying of “natural causes.”Answered on December 31, 2014flag this answer
