Is It Too Late To Buy Life Insurance?

A stethoscope laying on top of papers.


Many seniors believe that they are at an age at which they have passed life insurance eligibility.  Although most major life insurance policies require health underwriting (many smaller policies do not) and they won’t automatically deem you ineligible for insurance if you have pre-existing conditions, but you will pay more.  For instance, a 70-year-old male in excellent health would pay an average of $3,295 with a $100K death benefit, while an applicant with a condition like controlled diabetes might pay about $5,449 per year.  Before applying, experts recommend that you proactively manage your health.  For example, if you have high cholesterol, bring it down through medication and diet.  You can even pay to have a blood test run prior to applying to make sure your medical condition is under control (Kiplinger’s Retirement Report, August 2021, P8).

Pebble Beach, CA Genworth Long Term Care LTC Premiums To Go Up


One of the few remaining companies in the long-term care industry, Genworth, sent out a brochure to policy holders signaling rate hikes are coming.  Said the company:

Our policies are generally held for 30-40 years, which means when they were initially priced, a lot of assumptions were made future costs for claims that would be made decades later.  Many of those assumptions were incorrect because the cost of and demand for care have both skyrocketed since.  Insurance companies, including us, have had significant losses as a result.  Many have left the business.  Despite losing $3.6 billion on our older legacy policies, we’ve decided to stay in the business and file for rate increases on these older policies and select newer ones to cover the cost of future claims.  To learn more, call 1-888-479-6889 or go to Genworth.com/LTCpremiums
