Why are we saying that?
Modified Life Insurance: This is an ordinary life insurance policy, with premiums lower than standard policies for the first 3 to 5 years. The premiums for the standard Policy are higher in subsequent years.
Modified whole Insurance provides lower premiums for a limited time (usually 2 to 3 years, but occasionally up 5 or 10). Then the Policy will continue at a higher rate. Although it may offer some savings, the complexity of the policy options and high premiums make it not the best option for life insurance.

Rejoice in the knowledge that a modified health plan is available, regardless of your current health.
The lower rates you are charged early in your modified Whole-Life Coverage are not a discount. You'll make up any difference with higher payments once the initial period ends.
You will still be paying more for your coverage.
