Health & underwriting
Life Insurance With Epilepsy and seizures
A single provoked seizure and recurring epilepsy can lead to different underwriting questions. The seizure type, frequency and response to treatment help explain the actual history.
Not sure which fits?
Answer a few questions and we'll point you to the right coverage.
What seizure history should you have ready for an application?
Underwriters may request records and an accurate account of the history. The following details can help explain your circumstances; none is an approval rule.
First diagnosis and cause, if known; seizure type and frequency
Date of last seizure, medication adherence and dose changes
Injuries, hospitalizations, driving restrictions and neurological testing
Which coverage paths can you discuss with a licensed agent?
Fully underwritten term or whole life may be explored with documented seizure control. Simplified issue may be considered after checking its health questions. Frequent or recent events can limit choices; guaranteed-issue final expense may be discussed if appropriate and eligible.
What should you have ready for a coverage call?
Neurology follow-up, medication list, seizure dates and the results of relevant tests you already have. Do not alter seizure medication for an application.
How do you compare coverage without assuming approval?
Family Bridge Financial is Jacksonville’s independent life insurance agency, licensed in all 50 states and serving by phone and virtual appointment. We compare available options without invented prices or approval odds. State, age, residency, consent and other eligibility requirements still apply. A guaranteed-issue product generally avoids health questions but can have limited early benefits for certain deaths; confirm the actual schedule and exclusions. Never change medical treatment for insurance or cancel existing coverage before any replacement is approved and in force.
