Addison’s Disease Life Insurance

  • How well is the condition controlled
  • Medication (e.g. type, amount and frequency)
  • Date of last episode and details
  • Any history of Adrenal Crisis

In most applications for Addison’s Disease life insurance there will be a requirement by insurance underwriters to view your GP report to assess the levels of risk. It is not unusual with medical conditions such as Addison’s Disease for this to be a requirement for a life insurance application.

If you have applied for Addison’s Disease life insurance in the past and cover has been declined, postponed or accepted with special terms (e.g. premium loadings) then you should speak to one of our expert advisers. The Insurance Surgery has years of experience in dealing with non-standard life insurance applications such as for those with Addison’s Disease and we know which insurance underwriters are most suited to your circumstances.

Addison’s Disease Critical Illness Cover

Again there is a strong possibility that Addison’s Disease critical illness cover will be accepted and can also often be at the insurers standard rates with no special terms imposed. If the Addison’s Disease has been well controlled and there have been no recent episodes or issues then you should be accepted for critical illness cover at standard rates with no issues.

As with life insurance for Addison’s Disease, the insurance underwriters will often want to see your GP report to assess the levels of risk for any Addison’s Disease critical illness cover applications. Any insurance provider wanting to see your GP report is not a problem and should not be viewed as negative as it will mean that there will be NO ISSUES at point of claim as your GP will have disclosed everything about your medical history.

In some cases for Addison’s Disease critical illness cover there may be some policy exclusions applied where there are additional disclosures, exclusions can include:

If you have experienced recent issues of adrenal crisis then you will find that there is a strong possibility that Addison’s Disease critical illness cover could be postponed. The period of the postpone will depend on the severity of the recent problems and any hospitalisation.

If you are looking for Addison’s Disease critical illness then you should speak to an expert such as The Insurance Surgery who will be able to tell you which insurance provider will offer the best terms and save you money.

Addison’s Disease Income Protection

Income protection for Addison’s Disease can be slightly more strict in terms of underwriting due to the additional risks of claims on an income protection policy. In most cases the insurance underwriters will want to see a copy of your GP report to assess your Addison’s Disease income protection application. If your Addison’s Disease is well controlled with no further health disclosures then it is possible that income protection will be offered, however there will usually be a slight increase (or loading) to your premiums due to the additional risk.

In certain Addison’s Disease income protection applications where there has been a history of adrenal crisis or if there are other medical disclosures then your premiums may be subject to a bigger loading or in some cases cover may be declined altogether.
