Now there’s a calming thought. You’re still alive, traumatized from head to toe from a car to moose gathering on the highways of Maine and you’ve made it to the hospital. The doctor and nurse start working and you relax as you know that you are with...

There are some downsides to being raised in a place and by parents that molded me into a trusting person. Several months ago I was approached by two guys who wanted me to partner with them and process all of the business from their Afghanistan website for civilian...

Some years ago I had a client who really hit on a hot button for professionals like her as a physician and others who wore hats from CEO’s to attorneys, dentists and even psychiatrists. In the original case it had to do with a physician who had taken an anti...

If it isn’t crystal clear by now, it should be. People applying for life insurance with a current or past history of well controlled depression, anxiety, ADD, ADHD, bipolar disorder and other mood disorders are being abusively rated or declined by most life...

What a cold, cruel world we live in. Most of the time I am not surprised when someone calls because they they have been approved at a standard rate, sometimes a little worse for things like ADD, ADHD, mild anxiety or depression. A few days ago I got a call from...

I’ve talked in the past about how some companies will come on like they want to be the industry leader in a niche, only to fall of the radar completely a year or two later. The supposition on my part is that they either hired a new chief underwriter who put a...

Ok, so occasionally I’m like a broken record (dated myself on that one) and can’t quite let go of an injustice. My Mom thinks that’s a good thing and my wife says as long as it doesn’t affect my blood pressure she’s good with it…so...

I had a call today from a wife whose husband has a great high paying job as a translator for the military in Afghanistan. He’s a civilian, but works translating for trainers working with Afghan police forces and also goes on patrol with marines as a translator....

Since we have been able to nail down some very affordable rates for accidental death and dismemberment policies for civilian workers in war zones or really anywhere in the world, things have been hopping. Whether you are going to Kabul for a week or Somalia for a year...

I have written a lot in the past year about the availability of a very fairly priced AD&D product from a company that covers everything from simple AD&D to war risk for civilian contractors working in Afghanistan. The company that offers the coverage is...

I was working with a client who posed some interesting challenges for life insurance underwriting. Although as healthy as an underwriter could hope for, he is a skydiving instructor and also a skydiving jump plane pilot. Either of those, or both of those on a life...

Every time I hear of someone being rated anything more than preferred on a life insurance application for ADHD or ADD, it just leaves me shaking my head and wondering if the underwriter has any clue what attention deficit disorder is. I got an email this morning,...
