Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract] | |
New Accounting Standards | New Accounting Standards Accounting Pronouncements Adopted ASU 2014-15 : In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) (ASU 2014-15). This accounting standard requires management to perform interim and annual assessments of the entity's ability to continue its business operations within one year of the date of issuance of its financial statements. The Company must then provide certain disclosure if there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. As of January 1, 2016, the Company adopted this standard with no impact to the financial statements. ASU 2016-09 : In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (ASU 2016-09) to simplify certain aspects of accounting for share-based payment award transactions including: (a) income tax consequences; (b) classification in the statement of cash flows; and (c) accounting for forfeitures.Torchmark elected to early adopt this standard as of January 1, 2016, as permitted. This new accounting standard primarily affects Torchmark's computations of net income and diluted shares outstanding and thus earnings per share. While the intent of the adoption of this guidance is simplification, inherent changes in future share prices and volume of stock option exercises are expected to result in increased volatility in net income and earnings per share in future periods. As provided by the new standard, the adoption is prospective and thus will impact only 2016 and future periods. Below is a listing of the effects of the adoption of this guidance: • Condensed consolidated statement of operations: The Company recorded $2 million in additional excess tax benefits as a component of income taxes, which resulted in an increase in net income as compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 when the excess tax benefits of $5 million were recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital on the balance sheet. • Weighted average diluted shares:The weighted average diluted shares outstanding were adjusted to exclude excess tax benefits from the assumed proceeds in the diluted shares calculation. This change resulted in diluted weighted average shares outstanding calculated of 123.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 , as compared with 122.7 million as would have been calculated under the previous guidance. • Earnings per share: The adoption resulted in a $0.01 increase in earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2016 . • Condensed consolidated statement of cash flows: The excess tax benefits related to share-based payments of $2 million were presented as a component of operating activities in the same manner as other cash flows related to income taxes. In prior years, the excess tax benefits were reclassified from operating activities to financing activities. The prior period amounts were not adjusted. Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted ASU 2016-02: In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), (ASU 2016-02) which requires all lessees to report a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for most leases. For lessors, the standard modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases. The standard will become effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2019 and will require recognizing and measuring leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the standard to determine its impact. |

Other-Than-Temporary Impairments: Based on the Company's evaluation of its fixed maturities in an unrealized loss position in accordance with the OTTI policy, the Company concluded that there were no other-than-temporary impairments during the three -month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. As of quarter end 2016 , previously written down securities remaining in the portfolio were carried at a fair value of $57 million , or less than 1% of the fair value of the fixed maturity portfolio. Torchmark is continuously monitoring the market conditions impacting its portfolio, including holdings negatively impacted by recent low prices for oil and other commodities. While adverse market conditions for an extended duration could lead to some ratings downgrades among these holdings, Torchmark has the ability and intent to hold these investments to recovery, and does not expect to be required to sell any of its securities.

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract] | |
Discontinued Operations | Discontinued Operations At December 31, 2015 , Torchmark met the criteria to account for its Medicare Part D business as a discontinued operation and expects the business to be sold during 2016. Historically, the business was a reportable segment. However, Torchmark no longer emphasizes its Medicare Part D business due to declining margins, increased risks, higher drug costs, and increased administrative and compliance costs. Management believes this sale will allow the Company to better focus on its core protection life and health insurance businesses as well as provide additional capital to invest. The net assets held for sale at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were as follows: March 31, 2016 December 31, 2015 Assets: Due premiums $ 5,084 $ 8,041 Other receivables (1) 265,818 287,765 Deferred acquisition costs 16,864 17,037 Total assets held for sale 287,766 312,843 Liabilities: Unearned and advance premiums 3,559 806 Policy claims and other benefits payable 11,010 12,309 Risk sharing payable 26,754 23,837 Current and deferred income taxes payable 8,466 13,604 Other (229 ) 479 Total liabilities held for sale 49,560 51,035 Net assets $ 238,206 $ 261,808 (1) At March 31, 2016 , receivables included $195 million from Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and $71 million from drug manufacturer rebates. At December 31, 2015 , the comparable amounts were $193 million and $95 million , respectively. Income from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 was as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 2015 Revenue: Health premium $ 54,699 $ 88,092 Benefits and expenses: Health policyholder benefits 61,481 94,122 Amortization of deferred acquisition costs 1,008 603 Commissions, premium taxes, and non-deferred acquisition expenses 5,109 6,163 Other operating expense 1,780 1,249 Total benefits and expenses 69,378 102,137 Income (loss) before income taxes for discontinued operations (14,679 ) (14,045 ) Income taxes 5,138 4,915 Income (loss) from discontinued operations $ (9,541 ) $ (9,130 ) Operating cash flows of the discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 were as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 2015 Net cash provided from (used for) discontinued operations $ 14,061 $ (37,955 ) |

No cash contributions were made to the qualified pension plans during the three months ended March 31, 2016 . Torchmark expects to make cash contributions to these plans during 2016 in an amount not to exceed $20 million . With respect to the Company’s non-qualified supplemental retirement plan, life insurance policies on the lives of plan participants have been established with an unaffiliated carrier to fund a portion of the Company’s obligations under the plan. These policies, as well as investments deposited with an unaffiliated trustee, were previously placed in a Rabbi Trust to provide for payment of the plan obligations. At March 31, 2016 , the combined value of the insurance policies and investments in the Rabbi Trust to support plan liabilities were $81 million , compared with $79 million at year-end 2015 . Since this plan is non-qualified, the values of the insurance policies and investments are recorded as other assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are not included in the chart of plan assets above. The liability for the non-qualified pension plan was $68 million at March 31, 2016 and $67 million at December 31, 2015 . |

The adoption resulted in an adjustment to the weighted average diluted shares outstanding to exclude excess tax benefits from the assumed proceeds in the diluted shares calculation. This change has been applied prospectively and resulted in diluted weighted average shares outstanding of 123.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 , as compared with 122.7 million as would have been calculated under the previous guidance. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Business Segments | Business Segments Torchmark is comprised of life insurance companies which primarily market individual life and supplemental health insurance products through niche distribution channels to middle income Americans. Torchmark’s core operations are insurance marketing and underwriting, and management of its investments. The insurance marketing and underwriting operation is segmented by the types of insurance products offered: life, health, and annuity. Annuity revenue is classified as “Other premium.” Management’s measure of profitability for each insurance segment is insurance underwriting margin, which is underwriting income before other income and insurance administrative expenses. It represents the profit margin on insurance products before administrative expenses, and is calculated by deducting net policy obligations (claims incurred and change in reserves), commissions and other acquisition expenses from premium revenue. Torchmark further views the profitability of each insurance product segment by the marketing groups that distribute the products of that segment: direct response, independent agencies, or captive agencies. Torchmark’s management prefers to evaluate the performance of its underwriting and investment activities separately, rather than allocating investment income to the underwriting results. As such, the investment function is presented as a stand-alone segment. The investment segment includes the management of the investment portfolio, debt, and cash flow. Management’s measure of profitability for this segment is excess investment income, which is the income earned on the investment portfolio less the required interest on net policy liabilities and financing costs. Financing costs include the interest on Torchmark’s debt. Other income and insurance administrative expense are classified in a separate Other segment. The majority of the Company’s required interest on net policy liabilities (benefit reserves less the deferred acquisition cost asset) is not credited to policyholder accounts. Instead, it is an actuarial assumption for discounting cash flows in the computation of benefit reserves and the amortization of the deferred acquisition cost asset. Investment income required to fund the required interest on net policy liabilities is removed from the investment segment and applied to the insurance segments to eliminate the effect of the required interest from the insurance segments. As a result, the investment segment measures net investment income against the required interest on net policy liabilities and financing costs, while the insurance segments simply measure premiums against benefits and expenses. We believe this presentation facilitates a more meaningful analysis of the Company’s underwriting and investment performance as the underwriting results are based on premiums, claims, and expenses and are not affected by unanticipated fluctuations in investment yields. As noted, Torchmark’s “core operations” are insurance and investment management. The insurance segments issue policies for which premiums are collected for the eventual payment of policy benefits. In addition to policy benefits, operating expenses are incurred including acquisition costs, administrative expenses, and taxes. Because life and health contracts can be long term, premium receipts in excess of current expenses are invested. Investment activities, conducted by the investment segment, focus on seeking quality investments with a yield and term appropriate to support the insurance product obligations. These investments generally consist of fixed maturities, and, over the long term, the expected yields are taken into account when setting insurance premium rates and product profitability expectations. As a result, fixed maturities are generally held for long periods to support the liabilities, and Torchmark generally expects to hold investments until maturity. Dispositions of investments occur from time to time, generally as a result of credit concerns, calls by issuers, or other factors usually beyond the control of management. Dispositions are sometimes required in order to maintain the Company’s investment policies and objectives. Investments are also occasionally written down as a result of other-than-temporary impairment. Torchmark does not actively trade investments. As a result, realized gains and losses from the disposition and write down of investments are generally incidental to operations and are not considered a material factor in insurance pricing or product profitability. While from time to time these realized gains and losses could be significant to net income in the period in which they occur, they generally have a limited effect on the yield of the total investment portfolio. Further, because the proceeds of the disposals are reinvested in the portfolio, the disposals have little effect on the size of the portfolio and the income from the reinvestments is included in net investment income. Therefore, management removes realized investment gains and losses from results of core operations when evaluating the performance of the Company. For this reason, these gains and losses are excluded from Torchmark’s operating segments. Torchmark accounts for its stock options and restricted stock under current accounting guidance requiring stock options and stock grants to be expensed based on fair value at the time of grant. Management considers stock compensation expense to be an expense of the Parent Company. Therefore, stock compensation expense is treated as a corporate expense in Torchmark’s segment analysis. The following tables set forth a reconciliation of Torchmark’s revenues and operations by segment to its pretax income and each significant line item in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations .

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Therefore, they do not include all of the annual disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). However, in the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial position at March 31, 2016 , and the condensed consolidated results of operations, comprehensive income, and cash flows for the periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 . The interim period condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements that are included in the Form 10-K filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 26, 2016. |
Accounting Pronouncements Adopted and Not Yet Adopted | Accounting Pronouncements Adopted ASU 2014-15 : In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) (ASU 2014-15). This accounting standard requires management to perform interim and annual assessments of the entity's ability to continue its business operations within one year of the date of issuance of its financial statements. The Company must then provide certain disclosure if there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. As of January 1, 2016, the Company adopted this standard with no impact to the financial statements. ASU 2016-09 : In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (ASU 2016-09) to simplify certain aspects of accounting for share-based payment award transactions including: (a) income tax consequences; (b) classification in the statement of cash flows; and (c) accounting for forfeitures.Torchmark elected to early adopt this standard as of January 1, 2016, as permitted. This new accounting standard primarily affects Torchmark's computations of net income and diluted shares outstanding and thus earnings per share. While the intent of the adoption of this guidance is simplification, inherent changes in future share prices and volume of stock option exercises are expected to result in increased volatility in net income and earnings per share in future periods. As provided by the new standard, the adoption is prospective and thus will impact only 2016 and future periods. Below is a listing of the effects of the adoption of this guidance: • Condensed consolidated statement of operations: The Company recorded $2 million in additional excess tax benefits as a component of income taxes, which resulted in an increase in net income as compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 when the excess tax benefits of $5 million were recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital on the balance sheet. • Weighted average diluted shares:The weighted average diluted shares outstanding were adjusted to exclude excess tax benefits from the assumed proceeds in the diluted shares calculation. This change resulted in diluted weighted average shares outstanding calculated of 123.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 , as compared with 122.7 million as would have been calculated under the previous guidance. • Earnings per share: The adoption resulted in a $0.01 increase in earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2016 . • Condensed consolidated statement of cash flows: The excess tax benefits related to share-based payments of $2 million were presented as a component of operating activities in the same manner as other cash flows related to income taxes. In prior years, the excess tax benefits were reclassified from operating activities to financing activities. The prior period amounts were not adjusted. Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted ASU 2016-02: In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), (ASU 2016-02) which requires all lessees to report a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for most leases. For lessors, the standard modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases. The standard will become effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2019 and will require recognizing and measuring leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the standard to determine its impact. |
