Understanding Eligibility: A Transparent Guide for Applicants

We understand that the biggest concern for any applicant with diabetes is, "Will my application be accepted?" Here is an honest look at how insurers approach the process.

What Information Do Insurers Require?

To assess your application, insurers request your medical history and reports. Provide accurate information, as their goal is to understand your current health status.

How is Your Current Health Status Evaluated?

Insurers review indicators like your HbA1c level to assess long-term diabetes management. Good control positively influences the outcome, but each insurer's guidelines vary.

What If You Have Other Conditions (e.g., Hypertension)?

Honestly declare all conditions accompanying your diabetes. Insurers offer specific plans, and full disclosure is mandatory to ensure your claims will be considered valid.
