Update to the Premier Underwriting Guide

Update to the Premier Underwriting Guide At NGL, we adapt our LTCi underwriting practices as medical science continues to evolve and more information becomes available. We have identified scenarios where it may be acceptable for an applicant to have two first-degree relatives with dementia.
