Preparation is the key to a successful health interview. You just completed a long-term care application. Before ending the conversation, make sure your clients know what happens next.

New application requirements are coming soon

Coming Soon: New Application Requirements Beginning April 1, 2024, you will be required to provide the Social Security Number (SSN) or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) for all new Health and Final Expense insurance applicants. This requirement will help streamline the application process by improving instant-decisioning and straight-through processing. SSNs and ITINs are a reliable and universal way to verify a person’s identity and will allow us to determine if someone already has coverage while reducing the number of duplicate accounts. We’ll also be able to properly identify household discount allocation for customers with multiple policies and verify coverage threshold.
