The correct answer is A guaranteed renewable policy . In accident and health insurance, a guaranteed renewable policy gives the policyowner the right to continue the coverage in force, usually up to a specified age, as long as premiums are paid on time. The insurer cannot cancel the policy , but it does retain the right to change the premium . Any premium change must generally apply to an entire class of insureds, not just to one individual policyholder.

This is what distinguishes guaranteed renewable policies from noncancellable policies. A noncancellable policy also cannot be canceled by the insurer, but in addition, the insurer cannot increase the premium during the guaranteed period. Therefore, if the question states that the insurer may change premiums but may not cancel the policy, the correct classification is guaranteed renewable.

The other choices are incorrect because conditionally renewable and optionally renewable policies allow the insurer greater control over continuation and possible termination under specified conditions. Those forms do not provide the same renewal protection to the insured. Therefore, the policy described in the question is a guaranteed renewable policy .
