Frequently Asked Questions

My client has a medical history which product would he qualify for?

We have developed a triage tool that combine the medical questions from our extensive suite of simplified issue solutions. The tool will help provide a product recommendation based your client health profile.

The number of medical questions will depend on your age and the answers you provided to previous questions. The healthier your clients are, the more questions you will need to answer (but that's a good thing). Keep in mind this is not an application. The information used in this form is only valid once uploaded into Assumption Life’s electronic sales platform, Lia.
