Shareholder Protection Insurance Cover

MENTAL HEALTH LIFE INSURANCE COVER

Mental health is a common disclosure and can range in severity from stress/anxiety to bipolar, schizophrenia, post-traumatic stress disorder or history of self-harm or suicide attempts.

Insurers can find applications difficult to assess as symptoms can be hard to describe/quantify but useful information to have to hand is listed below.

What we need to know

• What is your condition?
• When were you diagnosed?
• Do you take medication?
• Have you ever been a hospital in-patient as a consequence of your mental health issue?
• Have you any history of suicide attempts or self-harm?
• Do you have any history of alcohol or drug abuse?
• Have you had time off work for this?

For certain conditions, such as bi-polar, are you in a full time occupation with a stable home life?

Maggie’s Story*

Maggie has a history of severe acute mental health issues, including 2 years in psychiatric care and multiple suicide attempts. These were all over 10 years earlier and now, at 40, Maggie was finding it exceptionally difficult to find anyone willing to offer her life and critical illness protection. We found the only insurer on the market willing to consider her case at that time and she paid only +50% rating over standard premiums on both her life and critical illness cover.

Steve’s story*

Steve has a history of PTSD coupled with a long-term back condition from his time in the armed forces. At 47 he has lumbar spondylitis, meaning he was in chronic pain. He had no history of self-harm or alcohol/drug abuse. He came to us after being declined for cover by a leading insurer. We found him life cover with a +100% rating through our knowledge and experience of current lenders.
