Atrial Fibrillation Life Insurance

Someone who has been diagnosed with Atrial Fibrillation and needs Life Insurance, will find it is certainly possible to obtain cover in most cases. Insurance underwriters will want to know the details of your Atrial Fibrillation which will include how many attacks you have suffered in the past several years, as well as the frequency and severity of those attacks. They will also want to see a medical report from your GP as well as results of any Thyroid Hormone investigations and any ECHO done recently.

Life Insurance terms for Atrial Fibrillation will generally vary depending on the number of attacks suffered each year, any recent hospitalisation and any associated conditions such as High Blood Pressure, Cardiomyopathy or Angina. Terms can be offered with a small rating if the condition is well controlled with few attacks or can be rated heavily if there are complications, even up to a decline for more severe cases.
