Life Insurance for Seniors Over 80

Feb 7, 2010 Life Insurance Quotes, Senior Life Insurance

1-888-950-TERM to speak with an agent or click here for online final expense life insurance quotes.

Some life insurance companies are more competitive at certain ages.  Here are some sample rates for final expense life insurance for seniors over 80.  An 80 yr old non smoking male in average health can get a $5,000 policy for $686.40/year and an 80 yr old non smoking female in average health can get a $5,000 policy for $524.15/year.  These are simplified issue policies that do not require a medical exam.  All you have to do is answer a few health questions on the application and then call the insurance company to complete a quick phone interview and you will find out right over the phone if you are approved or declined.  If you can answer no to the following questions you will generally be approved

1. Height____________________________ Weight ________________________

2. Do you need assistance with the normal activities of daily living (eating, bathing, dressing, taking medications,

etc.), or are you currently hospitalized, confi ned to a bed or nursing facility, or receiving hospice care?

3. Within the past 12 months have you

a. Been medically diagnosed with internal cancer, leukemia, lymphoma, or melanoma or have had more than one

occurrence of any cancer in your life time (excluding basal or Squamous cell skin cancer), had a recurrence of any

cancer, or currently being treated for cancer or had an amputation caused by any disease or cancer?

b. Been medically diagnosed, treated, or taken medication for stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA/mini-stroke)?

4. Within the past 24 months have you

pulmonary or lung disease (COPD/COLD), emphysema, chronic bronchitis, required oxygen to assist in breathing,

or uncontrolled high blood pressure?

b. Been medically diagnosed as having, been treated for or hospitalized for heart disease, Hodgkin’s Disease, heart

attack, heart or circulatory vascular surgery (including coronary artery bypass, pacemaker or replacement pacemaker,

heart valve replacement, abdominal aortic aneurysm, but excluding angioplasty or stent placement) cardiomyopathy,

or any procedure to improve circulation to the heart or brain?

5. Within the past 36 months have you

a. been convicted of a felony or are you currently incarcerated or on probation, been diagnosed or treated by a licensed

member of the medical profession for alcohol or any drugs of abuse, attempted suicide, or been convicted of operating

a vehicle while intoxicated or impaired?

6. Have you ever

a. Been medically treated for insulin shock, diabetic coma, or have you taken insulin injections or by other methods

prior to age 40?

b. Tested positive to exposure to the HIV infection or been diagnosed as having ARC or AIDS caused by the HIV infection

or other sickness or condition derived from such infection?

c. Had, or been medically advised by a member of the medical profession to have, an organ transplant, or been diagnosed

d. Been medically diagnosed, treated, or taken medication for chronic kidney disease (including dialysis), kidney or

liver failure, congestive heart failure, Alzheimer’s, dementia, Lou Gehrig’s disease (ALS), schizophrenia, bipolar

disorder, or mental incapacity?

If you cannot answer no to all of these questions, then we have other plans available which are called guaranteed issue.  Guarantee issue final expense life insurance policies generally take anyone without regard to health.  Most of them are issued with a graded or modified death benefit, which means they will not pay the full death benefit in the first 2 or 3 years of the policy.  What they do is pay a percentage of the death benefit in the first 2 or 3 years or they pay back your cumulative premium plus interest.  If the insured lives beyond this initial period and dies afterward the insurance company will pay the full death benefit.

These simplified issue and guaranteed issue low face amount policies go by names such as final expense, burial policy or funeral policy, but they are all basically the same thing, which is a life insurance policy and they are usually a whole life insurance policy.  Most seniors over the age of 80 and looking for life insurance are looking for these types of policies with a death benefit amount anywhere between $5,000 to $50,000.
