Not all illnesses affect life insurance premiums. Applications may require five years of medical history, but many conditions from hemorrhoids to tonsils have no impact on rates. Ratings vary by condition and policy type, with solo examples from Prudential and others. Some cases see temporary or permanent rejection, and contestability rules limit claims after two years in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.
