Height/Weight Underwriting

Most burial life insurance companies will have some type of height to weight ratio that you must fall under or they will not offer any coverage. However this is not the case for all companies.

Some companies have decided that they will not penalize or even ask you about your height and weight, and eve offer the same low prices as a person with olympic athlete type fitness.

These are the companies that we will go over in this article.

Other Health Conditions & Prescriptions

Now, even the companies that do not ask about height and weight will still ask you other types of health questions if you want coverage with no waiting period and rock bottom rates.

Serious health conditions like a heart attack or cancer in the past few years are what we will need to go over, as well as any serious prescription medications you take.

If you don’t have any serious health conditions other than being outside of the weight guidelines, you should have no trouble getting affordable coverage with one of these companies.

Aetna

Aetna is one of the most well known companies out there in the insurance sector and for good reason. They have many different products and don’t ask you about your height and weight at all.

Aetna also will take niche health conditions that other companies don’t take like COPD, seizures, cancer (if in remission for over 2 years), and heart attacks (if over 1 year ago).

If you are having trouble getting burial life insurance coverage elsewhere because of your weight, Aetna will give you the same low rates as anyone else. Fill out our quote form to get sample rates for Aetna.

Guarantee Trust Life

Guarantee Trust Life is a great hybrid company between immediate coverage like Aetna and Royal Neighbors and the guaranteed issue carriers like Gerber and AIG. Guarantee Trust Life does not ask you any height or weight questions and is the only non-guaranteed issue company that accepts congestive heart failure.

The main reason we have Guarantee Trust Life on this list is because heart failure is a common condition among people having trouble getting insurance coverage elsewhere, especially because of weight.

If you have this condition Guarantee Trust Life will probably be the best company for you in terms of price and without the long wait periods of the guaranteed issue carriers. Fill out our quote form and look for Guarantee Trust Life to see sample prices.

Final Tip

The biggest tip we can give to finding the best price for the coverage you are looking for is to work with an independent agency like Seniors Mutual. Unfortunately many people buy from the first piece of mail they receive or agent they talk to, locking them in with a policy that could cost them hundreds more a year.
