We specialize in high-risk life insurance underwriting for throat cancer survivors.
While head and neck cancers are complicated to underwrite, we’ll help you find your best options.
Throat cancers are typically categorized as either:
Laryngeal cancer (voicebox) or pharyngeal cancers of the upper, middle, or lower part of your throat.
While very few companies offer coverage, the following article tells you what you need to know.
Your doctor may perform a laryngoscopy and take biopsy samples for evaluation.
The biopsy results plus additional imaging tests (CT scan, MRI, PET scan, etc.) are completed.
The tests are done to determine the cancer stage and extent of cancer.
With the above information, you’ll have underwriting feedback in 3-5 days from companies.
At that time, we’ll let you know what each company has to say in terms of underwriting and price.
Life insurers will postpone offering coverage to you for 5 years or longer.
Other options may be available in the interim.
Under Age 50 When Diagnosed – Accidental death insurance is available, and guaranteed issue policies depending on your age.
Age 50 or Older – Guaranteed issue and accidental policies are available at any time.
Policies are limited to $25,000 or less and the death benefit is graded.
Once term life insurance or universal life insurance is available,
Most life insurance companies will offer you their standard life insurance rates plus an additional expense called a flat extra.
While flat extras are temporary (5 years for most),
The flat extra will typically add $500 – $1500 per every $100,000 of coverage you seek.
