New! Evidence of Insurability Schedule
We are pleased to announce Equitable’s new Evidence of Insurability Schedule. The new schedule applies to all life and critical illness insurance applications signed on or after October 5, 2024.    Here are the benefits to you: ●  New chart is easier to read with more clarity and transparency. ●  ECG and TST are no longer routinely required for Life applicants. ●  Blood and urine requirement is streamlined for Life applicants. ●  Detailed underwriting requirements for higher coverage amounts and mature applicants. Please refer to the new Evidence of Insurability schedule (Form #1343) for full details. Equitable® has the right to ask for more evidence of insurability. We will do this if we feel it is needed to assess the risk.  Key changes – Age and amount requirements  Life applicants: ●  Resting ECG: No longer a routine age and amount requirement. This may still be requested at our underwriter’s discretion. ●  Treadmill ECG: No longer required at any age or amount. ●  Standalone Urine: Standalone urine changed to blood and urine at $100,001 and $500,000 coverage amounts for clients over age 55. ●  Mature Age Focus Interview (MAFI): New for clients aged 75+. As part of the paramedical, we will assess the applicant’s Activities of Daily Living, social activities, and word recall ability. Life and Critical Illness applicants: ●  For clients aged 70+, evidence is now valid (recent) if completed within the past 6 months. For all other applicants (ages 18-69), there is no change – evidence is valid if completed within the past 12 months. Financial/Third-party verification Reminder – this is required for life insurance amounts over $5M. Our underwriting team will be pleased to assist you with this step. Questions?
