This chart should should only be used as a general guide, as the health requirements for each company will vary. Your Health Class will ultimately be determined by the underwriting insurance company. The InstantQuoteLifeInsurance Health Analyzer incorporates each company’s actual health and lifestyle guidelines. Note: Life insurance companies also factor in height and weight when underwriting a policy. |
