Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to some of the questions we hear most often from agents and distributors.
1. Question: What type(s) of diabetes require a “yes” answer?
Answer: If the application asks for any treatment or diagnosis of diabetes “requiring insulin” and the applicant does not require insulin, they should not answer “yes.” However, if the question does not reference insulin, any diabetes treatment or diagnosis in the past five years would require a “yes” answer. 2. Question: If the applicant was diagnosed with any condition more than five years ago and they are taking prescription medication to manage their condition, should they answer “yes” to that question? Answer: Any ongoing medication is considered treatment for a condition, and therefore the applicant must answer “yes” to that question.
3. Question: Is COPD considered a chronic lung condition?
Answer: Yes, applicants with COPD should answer “yes” to chronic lung condition.
4. Question: What is considered “chronic depression” and when should applicants answer “yes” to that condition? Answer: Depression is considered chronic when treatment or symptoms last longer than six months. If the applicant is unsure whether their condition is chronic, they should verify their diagnosis with their physician or psychiatrist.
5.
Question: Is TIA considered a stroke?
Answer: Transient ischemic attack (TIA) is a separate diagnosis from a stroke. An applicant who as experienced an episode of TIA but not stroke should not answer “yes” to treatment or diagnosis of stroke.
