Have you been declined for Term Life Insurance?

When you are declined for life insurance, there are a number of steps that you should take so you can try and obtain coverage. First you need to explore other options for coverage and you can do that here with the Lifeinsurance-pros. Below you will find some other helpful hints and tips to obtain coverage for yourself.

1) Draft a letter to the carrier requesting that the reasons for the declination be forward to the client's Dr. 
2) Sign and date the letter.
3) Fax the letter to the declining carriers underwriting department.
4) Obtain in writing from the carrier an acknowledgement of the client's request as well as an estimate of when the information will arrive at the client's doctor.
5) Make an appointment with your doctor to review the information.
6) After you have reviewed the information with his or her doctor, find out if any additional tests or procedures are planned.

Your options now are to renegotiate your offer or find a new Life Insurance Carrier to submit too.

Even without additional medical testing or clarification, you can appeal the original carrier decision. However, you will also need to think about approaching other resources.

Helpful tips to get a better offer or to appeal!

1) Appealing the original declination without new medical information is a waste of time. Take the case to a brokerage outlet that specializes in substandard underwriting and get a second opinion like us here.

2) If there is new medical information, then an appeal is in order. This is provided if you still wish to pursue the case.

3) Don't get your hopes up, fact of the matter is you have been declined or rated for a reason you can either improve by trying or simply not take the insurance offer.
