Frequently Asked Questions

Can a person with HIV get life insurance?

Yes, absolutely. Due to the recent changes in life insurance underwriting for HIV, we have seen a number of previous restrictions lifted. We now have access to standard rates and ‘whole of life‘ cover with no term restrictions if you are living with HIV, your viral load is undetectable, and your CD4 count is high.

Does a HIV test affect life insurance?

Similar to other pre-existing medical conditions, if you are HIV positive, you will likely pay higher premiums than someone who isn’t. The exact amount depends on your personal circumstances, which will be assessed when you put forward your application.

Does life insurance cover HIV?

If you’ve recently been diagnosed with HIV but already have life insurance, it is well worth reviewing your existing cover, especially if it was obtained several years ago, as it is very likely that some changes could benefit you.
