\"\" Exam-free policy options are more prevalent now than ever before and can be just as affordable as exam-required coverage! However, applying without an exam is dependent on the insurance company with which you apply and can be limited by the amount of coverage you select, your age, and your current health status.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Dave recommends 10-12 times your income in life insurance coverage so, if you need more than what is allowable to go exam-free, you may need to opt for a policy with the traditional exam. \u00a0He does not recommend paying more to avoid the exam unless the price difference is minimal or there are other reasons to incur a higher cost over the time frame of the policy.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You can easily find out if an exam-free policy are available to you by visiting our website<\/strong><\/a>.
