Pre-Existing Conditions and Life Insurance 3
You and your agent are the most important factors in the
timetable. Your agent is responsible for getting you the
application, setting up your exam, sending that exam to the
carrier, and getting any other requirements the insurance
company wants.
So all in all, you and your agent are the most important
factors in keeping your application moving through the
process. In general, without medical records being ordered
we have policies in place usually within two to four weeks.
With ordering records we average about one and a half to
two months. We try to make the process painless for you by
keeping on top of things!
To prepare for your exam you should be fasting for eight hours.
Drink water before the exam as this will help you provide a urine
sample and will make drawing your blood easier for both you
and the examiner. Also, refrain from stress or exercise before
your exam as they will impact your blood pressure and EKG
results.
You will need to show your driver’s license to the examiner for
identification purposes. Have your doctor’s address and phone
number ready for the examiner, as well as the last time you saw
the doctor, the reason for the visit and the recommended
treatment. If you take any medications, have them available for
the examiner.
