AD&D is short for Accidental Death and Dismemberment Insurance.
This means that if you die due to an accident this insurance policy may pay out a death benefit.
However, there is usually a limit as to when you die after the accident. For instance, you may have to die within 3 or 6 months of the accident in order for the policy to pay out a death benefit.
If you lose a leg, arm, hand, etc. and survive the accident there may be a benefit paid to you, as well.
Life insurance differs from AD&D in that it pays the face amount (death benefit) of the life insurance policy when the insured dies providing the cause of death was not excluded in the life insurance policy.
