When the policyholder passes away, the beneficiaries get the benefits.

It is recommended to take a medical exam to buy 20 year term life insurance although policyholder may buy life insurance policy without a medical exam. If the policyholder does not know about his/her health conditions, the insurance company may charge more premiums because it is a riskier position for the insurance company.
