How it works
Six answers cover what carriers need: your gender, birth date, amount of coverage, term length, your health in your own words, and whether you use tobacco. Plan for about a minute.
Every carrier's monthly rate appears alongside information about the health class the quote assumes, whether an exam is required or accelerated underwriting applies, and the carrier's financial strength rating.
Once you select a quote from the carriers, you proceed into a secure application that already has your answers filled in. You can save and resume anytime; sign at the end electronically.
