A term conversion is a contractual privilege that allows the exchange of all or part of a current convertible term life insurance policy for a permanent policy, such as whole or universal life. This process occurs without the need for a new medical exam or proof of insurability. The new permanent policy effectively replaces any portion of the term policy that is converted.
