I’ve talked before about Pan American Life Insurance and the fact that they will underwrite foreign nationals, mostly from Central and South America and the Caribbean. The only caveat is that they have to travel to Florida to complete the application and exam....

I am left shaking my head occasionally when I hear a client say that my quote is much higher than some other quote they have received. Since I shop virtually every case I quote I am confident when I send out quotes, well, they are as good as it is going to be after...

Ah, the fine print. Somewhere in that life insurance policy must be something written so small and obscurely that it can never be found by a mere human that excludes my family from being paid no matter how I die. All I am doing is paying money to an insurance company...

Whenever we talk about breast cancer life insurance the real meat of the discussion revolves around stage and grade. Just like the five year survival rate, life insurance for breast cancer survivors is a far better deal with an early stage and low grade. We know that...

I’ve often mentioned that shopping life insurance cases before sending a formal application is important. It saves time, avoids disappointment and, from a customer service standpoint, makes the whole process of approving impaired risk life insurance far easier...

I was reading an article on MSN Health yesterday about how to talk to your doctor. It struck me that the same things would hold true for how to talk to a life insurance (or health insurance) agent. It also reminded me of previous posts where I’ve talked about...

When you have survived cancer and are past the scare and past the treatment, for a lot of people it’s a time to reflect on what just happened and, for many, how they were lacking in the life insurance department. There are some basic guidelines that will help...

With almost all life insurance underwriting in relation to someone with a history of cancer there will be a waiting period after the completion of treatment before a company will approve a policy. The only exception to that rule that I can think of would be the two...

I was on vacation with my wife and granddaughter recently, a “ROAD TRIP”. 3300 miles in 10 days from Colorado through Utah, Idaho, Oregon to Washington, back through Idaho to Montana, south through Yellowstone and back to Colorado. It was a great time....

Not a week goes that I am not called by someone with a history of cancer. It can be as common and treatable as prostate cancer or breast cancer, or as unpredictable as multiple myeloma. They would like to have life insurance, just like anyone, but insurance quotes...

Some years ago the life insurance underwriting world went into a tizzy because a study had come out insinuating that a person who had multiple basal cell carcinomas, a truly non lethal skin cancer, had a higher chance of having a melanoma, a truly lethal form of skin...

I worked on an interesting case several years ago, a doctor who had a history of high grade non Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. He had undergone chemo and radiation and had not had a recurrence in several years, I think it was six at the time. What made the case a little...

My Dad died just over a year ago after a two year battle with bladder cancer. I say battle, but he was really in good health (other than the cancer) and good spirits right up to the last few weeks. He was 86 and led an amazingly full, blessed life. When a parent dies...

Lung cancer is one of the most deadly cancers in the world today, accounting for 18% of worldwide cancer related deaths. It has also, in all my years of studying and following breakthroughs in early detection, been the most stubborn in avoiding advances in clinical...

Life insurance is, always has been and always will be, about offsetting those financial losses that come with premature death. The problem that most people have with the concept is, that in spite of all of the evidence to the contrary, they seem to have a hard time...
