REAL People, REAL Underwriting.
Let’s get real. Many of your clients likely have a medical history or a lifestyle that makes for a challenging situation when it comes to underwriting. At West Coast Life, our flexible approach to underwriting is designed for reallife scenarios. Whether your client has been treated for a previous cardiac event or certain types of cancer, has a plus sized build, or is a well-controlled diabetic, our flexible, real-life approach could result in a more competitive offer.
Take a look at how our flexible approach to underwriting a plus-sized build can produce favorable results. (Results may be different based on the age, sex, and health status of your client).
A Real Life Plus-Sized Build Applicant:
• Male, 6 feet tall, weighs 324 lbs.
• In otherwise good health
• Good cardiac risks factors other than the build
• Chest measurement is at least 1″ more than the abdomen
The Reality: Overweight Americans
• 67% of Americans are considered overweight
• 34% of Americans are considered obese.
• 15% of American children, age 6-11 years are overweight
