The Nowell Agency shares some tips for life insurance 2021 that you should consider when purchasing a life insurance plan this year. 
Online Life Insurance Plans
Due to Covid-19, the way you would typically find and buy a life insurance plan has changed. More life insurance companies are moving to hybrid life insurance purchases (online and with an agent). This means you can shop around for top life insurance companies online, request a quote, research policy coverage, and then work with a life insurance agent who will talk you through the ins and outs of the top 2021 life insurance plans and assist you in determining the best life insurance policy for you. This tends to make the process of buying life insurance faster. However, if you want a more traditional, in-person approach, you can still find life insurance companies nearby who can accommodate you.
No-Exam Policies for Life Insurance
Covid-19 made in-person life insurance medical exams very difficult to conduct. Life insurance carriers adjusted, switching to a process called accelerated underwriting to predict a person’s life expectancy (and provide a life insurance quote) through data modeling. This trend of accelerated underwriting will most likely continue this year and this means you may not have a physical exam, making the life insurance application process 2021 easier and quicker.
Life Insurance Rates 2021
At the beginning of the pandemic, life insurance rates saw major increases. While the demand remains high, the rates for life insurance 2021 have stabilized, so you will be able to get a good idea of the cost of life insurance 2021 and feel confident that those rates will maintain.
Lower Life Insurance Rates 2021
For those with a lower Covid-19 risk, many life insurance carriers reduced the life insurance rates. If you are categorized as an individual who has a reduced Covid-19 mortality risk, then your life insurance premium 2021 will likely remain lower.
These are just a few of the changes to life insurance policies in 2021. For more information, to get a life insurance quote, or to speak with a top-rated life insurance agent, call the Nowell Agency today!
