DARIEN, Illinois (January 12, 2015) – LifeQuotes.com, the online life insurance exchange that offers instant quotes from 50 life insurance companies and allows customers to buy from any company shown, has good news for those who want to skip the dreaded medical examination. Many highly-rated life insurers now offer no-exam underwriting, which are available with initial rate guarantees of 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 years and even lifetime coverage depending upon the applicant’s age, state and health profile.
Depending upon the applicant’s age and state of residence, no-exam coverage is available up to $400,000 and many plans now offer paperless, instant-decision underwriting.
An important new trend in life insurance is the growing popularity of plans that do not require a paramed examination. “For those wanting to add extra life insurance coverage at surprisingly affordable rates, today’s no-exam plans represent a modern, quick and easy way to secure new coverage,” said LifeQuotes.com founder and CEO, Robert Bland. “But remember, medical history questions will be asked and these plans are designed for applicants who are in stable health at time of enrollment. To avoid unwanted declines, we’ve gone to extra lengths to display each company’s actual acceptance guidelines at www.lifequotes.com so that our customers can review them before they elect to formally apply for coverage.”

To apply for no-exam coverage, applicants do not need to see a doctor or take any medical test. Acceptance is based upon your answers to health questions and other information you may provide or give the insurer permission to obtain. Underwriting for most no-exam plans utilizes e-signature and/or a recorded telephone interview.
The no-exam insurers typically require U.S. citizenship, a valid social security number, and a valid U.S. residence. In some cases, coverage may be available to U.S. residents who are temporarily living abroad.
Bland continued, “Many of the no-exam plans now shown on our exchange platform offer excellent price-to-coverage values for consumers and often exceed popular association plans that may only offer coverage to $100,000 or only offer initial rate guarantee periods of 5 years. Visitors to www.lifequotes.com will see higher coverage amounts, lower premiums and longer rate guarantees.”
LifeQuotes.com advises all applicants to be honest in all of your answers and to keep in mind that the insurer you choose will require your permission to check your medical information, prescription drug history and driving record. Remember to answer each question truthfully because it is a crime in all 50 states to withhold requested information or make a misrepresentation on an insurance application.
