Quick answer · Parkinson's disease
Which life insurance fits someone with Parkinson's disease?
Parkinson's usually routes to a graded benefit or guaranteed issue whole life policy. Early-stage disease with mild symptoms and no falls or cognitive involvement occasionally reaches simplified issue at a carrier with narrow questions.
Which coverage paths can you discuss with a licensed agent?
- 1
Graded benefit whole life
Diagnosis present, symptoms mild, still independent day to day.
- 2
Guaranteed issue whole life
Advanced symptoms, falls, cognitive change, or assisted living.
- 3
Simplified issue whole life
Very early diagnosis and a carrier whose questions do not capture it.
Which coverage limitations should you check?
Competitive term pricing is not a realistic target after diagnosis.
When can life insurance coverage start?
Days to issue on the no-exam products, with the two-year ramp on graded and guaranteed issue.
