Lots of people today don’t know the importance of having a life insurance. If you are already in your senior years and you want a life insurance, you have to know that you need to undergo a medical examination first before you get your final quote and sign the policy.

The result of the medical exam will greatly influence your insurability as well as the final cost of the premium. The insurance company will pay for the medical examination and they will be the one to tell you which paramedical will carry out the examination. There are cases that no medical examination is required. This is possible for younger individuals or of the policy only has a small coverage.
The more coverage you want for your policy and the more type of policy you want, the more general your medical examination will be. Examinations that you need to undergo are x-ray, physical exam, EKG, blood work and urine specimens are common medical examinations that you need to undergo. You should expect that you will be tested for the following diabetes, high cholesterol, hepatitis, HIV, immune disorders, liver diseases, kidney disorders, smoking, and drug use.
Right after the examinations, the result will be sent to directly to the insurance company for reassessment. This is the reason why you need to make sure that you give accurate information as you fill the application form especially when it comes to your medical condition. Once the insurance company find out any discrepancy between your application and your examination results they can deny your application for life insurance or for second examination.
If you have declined for your insurance coverage because of medical examination, then you have all the right to request for a copy of that medical exam to be reviews by you and your medical doctor. If you strongly believe that the result is wrong, then you should not hesitate to communicate with the insurance company and ask for second medical exam. Once the insurance company evaluate your medical exam and approve the result, then they will calculate the premium based on the result and information such as health risk, conditions, provisions and they will send you the policy quote for you to review. You can accept or decline the policy coverage.
As much as possible you need to maintain the accuracy of your policy application. It is difficult to manipulate insurance medical exam and the insurance company will deny you if they found out that you are not telling the truth. They can give you insurance coverage even if you have lots of medical conditions if you have disclosed the truth, but of course for a higher premium. An insurance company have all their right and reasons to deny your insurance application. If you are smoking, then you should include that information on your application because the truth will come out after the examination.
