    Why am I being asked to have a medical examination or blood test?

    If an insurer determines that you are a ‘higher risk’, you’ll be asked to visit your GP for a health check and this information is then shared with the insurer.

    Life insurance documentation is generated once a policy is sold. It is therefore not possible to generate paperwork for a policy that doesn’t exist yet.
