Answer first
This draft does not compare policy mechanics or recommend cover. It provides a neutral record sheet to complete from current policy contracts with a licensed insurance reviewer.
How to decide
Do not infer coverage, ownership, beneficiaries, exclusions or portability from an acronym. Copy those answers from each current contract and have a licensed reviewer explain differences for the customer’s circumstances.
A practical process
Record the premium, whether it is paid upfront or financed, contract term, documented exclusions and provider contact. Keep unanswered policy questions visibly unresolved.
Limits and next step
This is loan arithmetic only; a licensed reviewer and current contract must supply every insurance conclusion. Check the linked primary source and its captured date before making a commitment.
