Specialized Coverage for Unique Needs

High risk life insurance helps people that standard insurers often turn away or charge much more. Perhaps you have a health condition, a dangerous job, or a risky hobby. Or maybe another insurer has already declined you. Either way, you still have options. At Nova Star Insurance Consultants, we understand these challenges, and we find coverage that protects your family and your income.

High risk life insurance for people with health or lifestyle risks

Why High-Risk Coverage Matters

  • Financial security: it protects your income and your family if something unexpected happens.
  • Peace of mind: you don’t have to wonder whether you can get coverage.
  • Customized coverage: we tailor solutions to your specific situation.

Who Is Considered High Risk?

Health conditions

Insurers may rate you as higher risk if you have diabetes, heart disease, a history of cancer, mental health conditions, or other ongoing health issues. Similarly, a recent diagnosis or a past decline can make standard coverage hard to get.

Dangerous occupations

Jobs in construction, mining, firefighting, and law enforcement carry more risk. As a result, some insurers charge more or limit coverage.

Extreme sports and hobbies

Scuba diving, skydiving, rock climbing, motorsports, and private flying can also affect your application.

High Risk Life Insurance Options

  • Life insurance: provides financial security for your loved ones if you pass away. Some carriers specialize in applicants with health or lifestyle risks.
  • Simplified issue life insurance: asks a few health questions instead of a full medical exam.
  • Guaranteed acceptance life insurance: asks no health questions. However, it usually limits the payout in the first two years.
  • Disability insurance: protects your income if illness or injury stops you from working.
  • Health and dental insurance: some individual plans accept you regardless of your health.
