Your Back Up Plan for a Term Life Insurance Application Denial

Written by Lindsay Torres on February 19, 2012 – 10:25 am

After many grueling hours of researching life insurance companies and comparing quotes, you submit your application only to be told that you are not eligible for coverage.

No two insurance companies follow the same underwriting policies and their guidelines are never truly set in stone. Learn from the decision and find another company and agent who are willing to offer you decent coverage at a reasonable price.

Reasons for Denial

Typically, while an insurance company may reject your application based on their underwriting guidelines, the reason for denial is most likely due to a health condition. Some companies may feel that asthma is an acceptable circumstance an individual must live with and it poses no threat to the company, while others may feel that asthma may mean a higher premium for the applicant.

Health

Almost all insurance companies will require you to undergo a physical and medical evaluation at no cost to you from a qualified physician, typically chosen by the insurance company.
