No Medical Life Insurance

What is "No Medical" required life insurance?

Due to those societal developments and conditions related to COVID-19, several insurance companies have eliminated the need for a medical exam and fluids while still providing competitive life insurance rates. In contrast with standard life insurance policies that require medical exams, “no medical” life insurance does not require blood tests, blood pressure results, urine tests, etc. Since testing is not done, the risk is higher for insurers, but with those recent changes in the industry, there is no change in cost to the consumer.

Types of “No Medical” Life Insurance

These plans without the medical examination requirement frequently have coverage limits in place to reduce insurance risk. There are essentially two forms of non-medical life insurance:

Simplified issue life insurance does not require a medical examination, but does include a number of health-related questions. In general, the longer the health questionnaire, the lower the cost of the insurance coverage.

Guaranteed Issue life insurance does not require a medical exam or answers to any health-related inquiries. These plans are available even if you’ve been previously turned down for insurance. The face amount of a Guaranteed Issue Life Insurance policy is usually $5,000 to $50,000. Generally, Guaranteed Issue policies have a deferred period of coverage. This means that during the first one or two policy years, premiums paid (sometimes with added interest) would be returned to the beneficiary if the insured passed away.

How does “No Medical” life insurance work?

At Canada Protection Plan, there are several insurance policies that do not require a medical test. Guaranteed Issue plans are useful for people who have significant illnesses and would  not otherwise qualify for coverage. Guaranteed Issue policies are for anyone who has a severe illness and may otherwise be difficult to insure. 

These insurance coverages are comparably expensive since the insurance company has assumed an increased risk by insuring the client. This “no medical” life insurance is ideal for individuals looking to cover final expenses and potential funeral costs.
