How Prices Are Determined

There are three main determining factors when pricing health insurance; age, the required level of benefits and whether any pre-existing health conditions require coverage. Generally, the older you get, the more expensive the health insurance but exceptions do exist. 

Some plans will exclude coverage on pre-existing medical conditions but other will cover them if they have been stable for a predetermined period. These predetermined periods may vary by provider and so can the definition of stability. Some plans may even cover more recent medical complications, but these plans are approved on a case by case basis. If you’re medical status is complicated, it important that you speak with a qualified broker to find the right coverage.  

We would be happy to provide advice as to which policy is the most suitable. For help determining policy suitability, please fill out out medical questionnaire.
