Life insurance with Graves’ Disease

Those with Grave’s Disease may be eligible for life insurance, critical illness coverage, and income protection as it is categorized as a lower risk condition. Underwriters may need information on:

  1. Date of original diagnosis
  2. Severity of symptoms
  3. Medication or treatment
  4. State of general health
  5. Any other medical issues

Anyone looking for Graves’ Disease life insurance will generally find that the condition on its own should not cause any major issues in getting cover. Graves’ Disease life insurance can be available from the insurers standard rates with no special terms imposed up to special terms where the condition is either more severe or if there are other medical conditions present.

There may also be a requirement for you to provide a copy of your medical report or records from your GP when applying for Graves’ Disease life insurance, especially where there are other medical or health problems.
