Bariatric Surgery Life Insurance

If you have had Bariatric Surgery and are looking to secure Life Insurance, knowing where to find the most competitive option can be tricky. We specialise in finding cover for clients who have previously had Bariatric Surgery, meaning we know where to look to find the best policies.

There are different types of Bariatric Surgery, but the most common are Gastric Bypass and Sleeve Gastrectomy. These surgical procedures have the aim of reducing an individual’s BMI and reducing the risk of the following conditions:

• Type 2 Diabetes
• Heart Attack
• Stroke
• High Blood Pressure
• Sleep Apnoea

Getting Life Insurance after Bariatric Surgery

If you recently had Bariatric Surgery, you may have found that Life Insurance companies have been unable to consider an application. Most Insurers in the UK will postpone an application for 6 months following surgery, which is typically to allow enough time for a full recovery and for an individual’s weight to stabilise following the procedure.

However, underwriting rules change and evolve on an ongoing basis for Life Insurance companies in the UK, so even if you have previously been offered cover it may not be the best available option. If you would like to compare an existing quote, or look into a fresh policy give us a call on 01275 404 268 or request a Life Insurance quote online.
