Insurance policies are contracts and every contract has in it certain provisions that are time sensitive.  The contestable clause - which states the time frame and reasons why the insurance company can void the policy - is one of them.  Generally, after two years the insurance policy in not contestable.   But again, you need to read the group contract.  If your husband did not do anything to give the insurance company reason to contest the payment then you should have nothing to worry about.  If they do contest for any reason, you should hire a lawyer.
