Rated Premium
Insurance
Rated
Premium Insurance is based on the information provided by
the customer, and the policy will consider many risk
factors. If you are a smoker then the average premiums
rate at “65% higher” risk. The statistics have shown that
people who do not smoke often live healthier lifestyles
and rarely die of cancer. Today, the statistics are
finding new information, since many people today are dying
of cancer and do not smoke, however, the probability of
risk is exceptional to smokers.
The
definition of smoker at ALL insurance companies is, “A
person, who used, smoked or otherwise consumed any kind of
tobacco products during the previous 12 months.” Thus, few
companies have different timeframes, but this is the
common definition. If you have not used any tobacco
products over the timeframe defined in the policy, then
your premiums are often lower.
Thus,
when consider life insurance you will need to know the
term you want to be covered since this is a common factor
by most insurance agencies. You must also consider
critical illnesses, and if you expect to undergo some form
of illness that will deteriorate your health. If you
smoke, then you must consider this option more so than
ever, since the risks are higher. You will also need to
consider whether your drink alcohol, your weight, age, job
status, smoke, and other areas to provide the insurance
agency since the company will consider the answers.
Other
factors that insurance consider when offering quotes is
age. If you are older than 67 then your premiums are
higher often and you are offered the Rated Premium Policy.
In addition, if you rarely exercise or do not exercise at
all then you probably will receive the Rated Premium
rates. Furthermore, if you live an unruly lifestyle, such
as engaging in dangerous sports, smoking, or drinking
alcohol obsessively then you are a high-risk candidate
that most likely will pay higher premiums.
Each
year you grow with your policy the company will consider
age factor. Thus, if your age and health change during the
policy you may pay higher premiums. In addition, if you
work at a job that poses risk factors then you will
probably receive the Rated Premiums. For the most part,
statistics show that “88%” of the clients applying for
life insurance receive the common quotes.
If you
have Rated Premium coverage and planning to retire, you
may want to consider lower your coverage. There are
several factors to consider on retirement coverage,
including premium rates. Many insurance companies’ will
continue your plan, but if you have, higher risks involved
than when you took out the policy, your premiums again
most likely will increase. Furthermore, if you have life
insurance policy and own a home, without coverage for
mortgage then you may want to consider purchasing mortgage
and life insurance coverage.
We
can’t predict death, but we can certainly provide a
measure of security for our loved ones. Life insurance
policies are the term of life you expect to live. Thus, if
you do not have adequate coverage and die then your loved
ones are out of money, since they will pay the burial
expenses and mortgage if you owe on your home. Other
policies including Critical Illness can be of benefit,
since these policies will coverage illnesses, mortgage,
credit cards, and other debts that incur as a result of
your illness.
You may want to note if you decide to retire and cancel
your insurance policy you are expected to wait 12 months before re-applying.
Canceling the policy may not be in your best interest, especially if you don’t
have money saved for burial expenses and mortgage payoffs. In addition, if you
have a family you want to provide cover for them as well, but the Joint Policies
are often more expensive than the Single Policies, therefore, consider the
discounts you will receive on Single Policy Coverage.
Finally, if you do not fall under the Rated Premium
category, then your rates and premiums are the common rates with the exception
that you have mortgage. If you need mortgage coverage, expect to pay higher
premiums and rates, since capital and burial combined is expensive to payoff.
