Life Assurance & Critical Illness Cover - If your family has a medical history

If you or immediate members of your family have had some hereditary health issues - our brokers can research the market to help offer competitive deals. 

Life insurance companies "for those with a family history of health issues" looking to offer cover must decide whether or not you are an insurable risk. If you or any members of your family have had a genetic disorder or there is a family history of a particular disease or medical condition, they will want to check on your general state of health before deciding what premiums to charge for the life insurance cover you require.

"My brother & father both had testicular cancer - and I know I need to disclose this relevant information to the Insurer, otherwise I understand the policy may not payout "

In many cases the Insurance Provider maybe able to offer terms - sometimes with GP reports & having a medical exam as necessary. Just because they request this does not always mean they are going to charge you higher premiums but you may have exclusions applied.

When it comes to life insurance with a family health history, it makes sense to fully disclose your medical history.
