How Life Insurance Has Changed!

by Ed Hinerman | Oct 26, 2016 | blood pressure, cholesterol, family history, HDL, insurance, life insurance

We’ve all heard the the more things change, the more they stay the same (something like that) and there are plenty of areas in life where change grinds so slowly that, well, we might all be using our life insurance before we actually see it really, really...

The Change In Life Insurance Cholesterol Underwriting!

by Ed Hinerman | Oct 31, 2012 | blood pressure, cholesterol, HDL, high blood pressure, insurance, life insurance

A few years back I fought a bloody battle with an underwriter from ING over what today still stands as the most illogical piece of underwriting I have ever run in to. Not that the two events are in any way related, but I won the battle  and then watched company after...

Holy Triglycerides Batman! Who Was That Masked Lipid?

by Ed Hinerman | Jan 7, 2012 | cholesterol, HDL, insurance, life insurance

I recently shared about an insurance applicant who was approved by Transamerica at table 4 due to some admirably huge lipid readings. His Trigs were 862, total cholesterol 348 and HDL/total ratio 9.25. I encouraged him to take those results directly to his doctor. I...

A New Look At Lipids And Heart Disease!

by Ed Hinerman | Aug 3, 2011 | cholesterol, HDL, insurance, life insurance

Just when you have everything comfortably figured out some scientist or doctor or study throws a curve ball at you. Cholesterol was something we all finally got. We knew that if our cholesterol was 200 or under and our LDL, HDL and triglycerides were in the...

Finally! Some Recognition For Good Cholesterol!

by Ed Hinerman | Apr 22, 2010 | cholesterol, HDL, insurance, life insurance

For years the underwriting benchmark for life insurance’s best rate class has been a cholesterol ratio of 5.0, 4.5 by some more conservative companies. The cholesterol ratio is determined by dividing total cholesterol by HDL, good cholesterol. For instance,...

Hit And Missed Opportunities Of 2009 In Life Insurance Underwriting!

by Ed Hinerman | Dec 28, 2009 | cholesterol, HDL, insurance, life insurance

Life insurance underwriting is kind of like sand dunes. You can take a picture at the beginning of a year and it can be absolutely clear where every grain of sand lies. The exact same picture taken at the end of the year could easily have been taken on another planet....

Two Life Insurance Potholes In The Road. Blood Pressure And Cholesterol!

by Ed Hinerman | May 14, 2009 | cholesterol, HDL, heart attack, high blood pressure, hypertension, insurance, life insurance, stroke

There are plenty of people that apply for life insurance and are sure they are going to get the best rate class available. In their mind they are even ahead of Superman because he has that disorder that has to do with Kryptonite. These people have never been sick,...

Lipids! Cholesterol Numbers And What They Mean For Life Insurance!

by Ed Hinerman | Apr 10, 2009 | cholesterol, HDL, heart attack, heart disease, insurance, life insurance

With statins being prescribed for people with perfectly normal lab results it kind of makes you wonder if we haven’t gone a little overboard in our quest to avoid heart attacks. Clearly if you never leave your house you have almost no chance of being hit by a...

Ed has been an invaluable consultant and truly, a friend! His advice and wisdom is a real asset in making decisions... regarding life insurance, one of the most important decisions in life.

I've known Ed for 16 years now and he has helped me when other insurance providers either turned me down or simply... didn't want to deal with me at all. I have a lot of medical issues that make it difficult if not impossible to be insured but Ed worked with me to keep my policy active. He also gave me a 'heads-up' to save me money by renewing prior to an age related rate increase. I would recommend Ed (and have) to anyone looking for coverage- one of the nicest guys I've ever had the pleasure of knowing.read more

We Really DO Come Through for our Clients.

“Thank you so much for the effort you put into securing my husband’s life insurance policy. As a person diagnosed with bi-polar type II, he was treated as nearly impossible to insure by our old insurance agent. Yet, he is fully functioning with this disease and has a flourishing career. You were able to hear our frustrations about the stigma attached to the bi-polar label–that all bi-polar patients are depressive or suicidal– and teach the insurance company’s underwriter the difference between a functioning bi-polar II adult and a person whose disease is far more of a liability to an insurance company. Thank you for the effort you put into securing my husband’s policy; with your help, we ended up with a policy that costs the same as a healthy, non-smoking, non-bi-polar adult. Moreover, your service as our agent was impeccable. You followed up every step of the way. We can’t wait to tell others–with or without illness– about your service.”

— Kate & Sean
