Polycystic Ovary Syndrome critical illness cover

Terms and underwriting for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome critical illness cover is very similar to life insurance so there should also be no issues getting this type of policy.

Anyone who is otherwise in perfect or good health with no other medical problems should be able to get Polycystic Ovary Syndrome critical illness cover at the same rate as someone with no medical conditions.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome income protection

There should also be no issues being able to get Polycystic Ovary Syndrome income protection as this is not considered to be a risk factor on its own when assessing an application for this type of cover.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome life insurance

Generally there will be absolutely no issue with getting PCO life cover and most cases will be offered at the same rate as someone with no medical or health issues.

In some cases there may be other health complaints which can cause issues for PCOS life cover such as high BMIType 2 Diabetes and other health related conditions.

Your age

Your current weight and lifestyle

The date of your initial diagnosis

Any other associated health conditions such as heart attack or stroke

Associated congenital conditions such as heart disease

Whether you have high blood pressure

Whether you have had surgery for coarctation of the aorta

Whether you smoke

The impact your condition has on your job

Following these considerations, an insurer will normally be able to inform you of the kind of policy you will be eligible for based on your circumstances.

Generally speaking, if you have coarctation of the aorta but your symptoms do not require treatment and you have never been in hospital for surgery as a result of your condition, you should be eligible for a ‘non-rated’ life insurance policy.

However, if you have had an angioplasty procedure to correct your condition, and you are suffering from symptoms in line with it, you may be considered a higher risk for life insurance, and could pay a higher premium than someone with no symptoms. An insurer will likely request medical records from your doctor to confirm your details and to offer you the best policy available.

At The Insurance Surgery, we have helped many people find the right coarctation of the aorta life insurance cover for their needs. Ratings for an individual seeking life insurance with coarctation of the aorta can vary depending on their individual circumstances, so it is important that you approach the right insurance provider that understands the nature of your condition.

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.

We understand that finding life insurance can be tricky, especially when you have a pre-existing condition, so why not leave it to us? Give us a call today, and we’ll help you find the ideal policy that suits your needs and matches your budget.
