What Is Coronary Angioplasty life insurance?

Coronary Angioplasty procedures are most commonly carried out on older people. This is because arteries can become harder and more narrow as we age. This in turn can cause coronary heart disease or angina, which happens when blood flow to the heart becomes restricted. In the case of angina, a Coronary Angioplasty procedure can also be used to restore blood flow to the heart. In many cases, blood flow to the heart is effectively restored following an Coronary Angioplasty, with many patients noticing significant improvement to their quality of life and an easing of their symptoms Because Coronary Angioplasty procedures are generally carried out on older people aged 65 or over, some complications can occur. Serious complications from surgery depend on the following factors:

Critical Illness Cover

Critical illness cover could be available to you following Coronary Angioplasty surgery, although this will depend on your circumstances. Cover will depend on whether there have been any post-surgery complications, and whether these have had any impact on your general health and lifestyle. Applications for critical illness cover can be stricter than applications for life insurance. An insurer is likely to want to view medical records in relation to your Coronary Angioplasty surgery. If your symptoms are seen as more severe, you might be offered cover with non-standard terms that are bespoke to your situation. If you have had surgery with no complications and have a healthy lifestyle that is unaffected by your condition, you may be offered cover at a standard rate. Get in touch with us at The Insurance Surgery for more details and to be put in touch with insurers offering critical illness cover that meets your needs.

Income Protection Insurance

It is highly unlikely that you will be eligible for standard terms regarding personal income protection if you have had a Coronary Angioplasty procedure. This is because many insurers will perceive you as a high risk, because your condition and the result of your surgery may mean that you need more time off of work due to your health. If you are self-employed or own your company, there may be income protection options for you. Speak to one of our advisors at The Insurance Surgery for more information.

Coronary Angioplasty life insurance

Underwriting for Coronary Angioplasty life insurance will depend on the following factors. Insurers will want to know the following information in order to assess your application:

The particular arteries that are affected

Whether you have had a heart attack , angina or stroke

The underlying condition that caused the need for the procedure

Your current state of health following the operation

It is likely that given the seriousness of Coronary Angioplasty surgery, an insurer will want to see a medical report from your GP to gain an idea of your current health and the state of your health before the procedure. If there are any underlying health conditions, it is likely that you will be offered life insurance with increased premiums.

If however you have had surgery and have experienced no presence of underlying conditions and a good bill of health, an insurer may accept you with standard terms.

Some life insurance applications can be easily accepted and underwritten online, but always bear in mind that an insurer may want to discuss your application with you in more detail to determine the severity of your condition.

They may want extra details of medications you are taking, the date of your initial diagnosis and need for surgery, and details of any other medical-related complications.

At The Insurance Surgery, we have helped many people find the right Coronary Angioplasty life insurance cover for their needs.

If you’re the primary breadwinner or share financial responsibilities, a life insurance policy can help your family maintain their standard of living in the unfortunate event that you’re no longer around to support them.

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.

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.

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. 

The Insurance Surgery also offers a free Annual Review service to all our existing / new clients. This means that we constantly make sure that you have the right cover for your ever-changing life and check for any changes in underwriting.

Yes, we do! Use our partner’s Travel Insurance comparison tool to compare over 20 travel insurance quotes, all with your HIV covered, within just a few minutes and only having to input your information once.

Offering free advice, our experts are ready and waiting to offer protection advice on HIV life insurance policies that would best benefit your circumstances. With 25 years of experience, we’re a trusted broker and pride ourselves on making insurance simple.
