But ... here's the issue: Insurance companies may be reluctant to issue a policy. There are, however, companies that WILL do so! The question is, Can you afford the premiums? What would cost you $30 to $80 may end up costing you $900 to $2000 or more. So, it depends on the situation. Try calling some compaines and do your research. I hope I was able to help out. James Yes, There are "Graded" policies that pay a limited amount the first 3 years.

Shopping For No Exam Life Insurance?

Life insurance companies offer no exam life insurance policies and comparison quotes over the Internet all the time. Life insurance brokerage companies work with life insurance providers to make no exam life insurance policies highly available and because these brokerage companies work for multiple life insurance providers, they can often make comparing policies very simple to do. What is no exam life insurance? The term no exam refers to no medical examination. Life insurance providers are betters, and the like to bet on winners based on a set of statistical scores that indicate whether a person is more or less likely to die based on their medical history. For that reason, many life insurance policies require a medical exam, but for people with a problematic medical history or those who have pre-existing medical conditions, it's not possible for them to qualify for a life insurance policy that requires a medical exam. Therefore, many life insurance providers have designed no exam life insurance policies to cover people who either don't want to or can't take a medical exam and be qualified for a life insurance policy. To shop for no exam life insurance, a person can either work with an agent or do their own research using the Internet. A simple search engine search for 'no exam life insurance' will yield a vast number of results, but you may find it's best to work with the recognized life insurance broker companies as they have access to a wider number of life insurance policies and can make comparing no exam life insurance policies much easier to do. After you find a list of no exam life insurance policies you may qualify for, you'll want to determine how much life insurance coverage you need and what type of coverage you need: term or whole. A term policy covers the insured for a period of time – the term of the policy. A whole policy covers the insured over their entire life as long as premiums are paid. Term policies by default require less in premiums than whole policies.
