With your application, please submit payment for your first month of coverage (this is the amount indicated in your price quote). Without payment, the review process will be delayed. When you apply online you can use a credit card.
Important note: We will charge your credit card or deposit your check ONLY if your application is approved.
Step 2 Confirmation & Approval
We review your completed application as soon as we get it. This review process is called “medical underwriting”. We may call you to clarify information you’ve provided. The review process takes about 5 to 15 days.
After your application has been processed, one of three things can happen. You may be:
- Approved at the quoted rate (known as the standard premium charge)
- Approved at a higher rate (based on your medical history)
- Declined coverage (based on your medical history)
You’ll be notified by mail about the decision. If approved, coverage will typically start on your chosen effective date.
Important note: Do not cancel your current health insurance until you have been notified of your approval for this new plan.
We will apply the payment you’ve submitted to your first monthly payment. For credit cards, any additional payment that is required (based on the underwriting process) will be charged to the card. If you paid by check, any additional amount will be show up in your next payment.
