There are four different types of life insurance, and the best one for you depends on your health, hobbies and occupation.
Traditional life insurance: always has the lowest rate, but to qualify you must pass a medical exam and answer a long questionnaire.
Rated traditional life insurance: is a traditional life insurance policy with a higher premium to cover health risks, such as diabetes.
Simplified issue no medical life insurance: If your health does not allow you to qualify for traditional or rated insurance, you can skip the medical exam, answer a shorter question list and apply for simplified issue no medical insurance. The coverage is lower and the premiums are higher than traditional or rated policies, but it is still affordable coverage for your needs. This is a popular choice among seniors.
Guaranteed issue no medical life insurance: has no medical exam or questions. Everyone can qualify, but this policy has the highest premium and the lowest benefit. If you pass away within the first two years of the policy, your premiums (in whole or in part depending on the policy) are returned to your beneficiaries.
