How Companies View Cystic Fibrosis

Every company has unique underwriting for different health conditions. Some don’t ask about certain health conditions because they are okay with it, others only care about the past few years for a health condition. Others only care about the type of medication you take.

In the end, there are many companies out there that only offer waiting period plans or raise your rates, or both, for people with cystic fibrosis.

But not all.

There are plenty of companies out there that don’t view cystic fibrosis as a risk whatsoever, no matter how long you’ve had it or are on serious medication.

You just need to find the right companies.

Medications

Some companies don’t ask about cystic fibrosis but will check your prescription history for any serious lung issues like COPD, emphysema or cystic fibrosis. Some common medications for this disease are albuterol or antibiotics for your lungs.

Now, if the medications are only for cystic fibrosis, you have nothing to worry about with the companies that accept cystic fibrosis. However, if you are trying to get coverage with a carrier that has denied you, it’s probably because of the medications.

Unfortunately, people with cystic fibrosis are paying hundreds more a year than they need to on burial life insurance because they are with a company that raised their rates!

This doesn’t need to be the case.

Other Health Conditions

Many people who have cystic fibrosis have other health conditions, sometimes with COPD.

You should know that many other health conditions narrow your options for burial insurance further.

The good news is, even if you have multiple health conditions, working with an independent agency you can still find coverage with no waiting period at affordable rates most of the time.

For example, if you have cystic fibrosis, COPD, and had a recent heart attack a few years ago, we still have companies that offer you day one coverage at the same rates as a healthy person.

It is vitally important to go over all of your health issues with us so we can pair you with the company that will offer the best rate and with no waiting period.

Oxygen Use

If you currently use oxygen to breathe, even if only for emergencies, you will only qualify for a waiting period plan with every company. These rates are still very low and affordable, but the waiting period is mandatory if you are on oxygen, because this is more risk to the insurance company.

You still qualify with many of the same carriers, just keep in mind that waiting period is your best option at this point.

Lung Transplant

If you have had a lung transplant, or any organ transplant for that matter, you only qualify for a guaranteed issue policy.

Guaranteed issue policies ask you no health questions and can get you coverage in just minutes, but they all come with a two year waiting period at higher monthly premiums.

If you’ve had an organ transplant of any kind any time in your life, guaranteed issue is your only option. At this point it is just a matter of which company offers you the best rates.

If you know you are going to need a lung or organ transplant in the future for whatever reason, get approved for burial insurance now before getting the transplant.

You will get better rates and no waiting period if you do it now before you get the transplant.

Find The Best Rates

The key to finding the best rates for any type of life insurance is to work with an independent agency that offers many companies to you.

We at Seniors Mutual pair people with the best rates available most of the time with no waiting period every day.

Now, some people don’t want to bother with the health questions. If this is the case for you, we can find you a guaranteed issue policy at low rates and coverage only takes a few minutes.

However, if you want to save the most money on your burial life insurance, no matter what health condition you have, it will only take a brief phone call to go over your complete health profile and find which company offers you no waiting period and affordable coverage.
