Frequently asked questions

You don't need to provide your name, address or other personal information at this stage. Six pieces of information—gender, age, health status, tobacco use, desired benefit amount, and term length—are sufficient to generate quotes from multiple carriers. Personal details are collected only if you decide to proceed with an application.

The amounts displayed are the rates provided by each carrier for the health classification you specified. After underwriting, the carrier may confirm, adjust upward, or improve the classification you initially received. These quotes are estimates and do not constitute an offer of coverage or a price guarantee.

Once you select a quote and provide your name, the application is generated from that specific quote and transfers to the carrier's encrypted application system. You can pause and resume at any time, and all signatures are completed electronically. Susman Insurance Agency, a licensed California agency (License 0B75129), manages the application process.

The requirement varies by carrier, coverage amount, and your responses. Several carriers now offer expedited decisions for qualified applicants without an exam; each quote clearly states whether medical testing is necessary, optional, or not required.

Choose a term length that protects your dependents during the years when losing your income would create hardship—a home loan, supporting children, or a business obligation. Longer durations carry higher monthly costs but guarantee your rate for that full span. The tool allows you to see side-by-side comparisons of 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30-year options.
