About Dave Bowman
Expertise
I will answer questions of a general nature regarding life insurance, disability income insurance annuities (fixed and variable) and long term care insurance. Also, questions regarding estate analysis. No legal or accounting advice, as I am not a lawyer or a CPA. I do not sell health insurance, so have limited knowledge of the current status of that field.

Subject: life insurance for international person ...

Question
Hello Mr. Bowman,

I am wondering if you knew of any companies that offered life insurance to international persons (outside of the US) with a pre-existing condition?

Answer
Most countries have resident life insurance companies that offer policies protecting you if you live permanently outside the U.S.  If you obtained your policy while in the U.S. it should be payable wherever you go.  Some companies offer U.S. citizens who travel abroad coverage, depending on the mode of travel, length of time expected to be spent outside the U.S., and where exactly your travel customarily takes you.

Pre-existing conditions are usually covered if disclosed on the application.  The presumption is that if you disclosed the condition and the company accepted you that a death claim will be payable, even if resulting from the condition disclosed.  If you misrepresent any relevant condition, the policy could be voided.

Hope this gets you what you were looking for.

David S. Bowman, CLU
