Life Insurance Claim Denied for High Blood Pressure
In the US, around 75 million people have hypertension with more people dying of High Blood Pressure related cardiovascular disease than from the next three deadliest diseases combined.
Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is defined as having a blood pressure higher than 140 over 90 mmHg, with a consensus across medical guidelines.
When a life insurance claim was denied because of High Blood Pressure — commonly referred to as hypertension– a full investigation of what happened while the policy was being underwritten in addition to how the claim was handled is needed to overturn the denial.
Hypertension has become a health issue that almost never justifies a claim denial. We know how to appeal and get these claims paid. If you have a life insurance claim that was denied for high blood pressure, contact us to get it paid.

Life Insurance Policies and High Blood Pressure
Most life insurers will offer policies to applicants who admit to having high blood pressure. It’s only when the blood pressure is uncontrolled and the readings are too severe will the insurer decline. With this as an industry standard practice it’s not common for a death claim to be denied for high blood pressure.
If a life insurance claim is denied for high blood pressure there are two places we start to look for evidence that the claim should be paid. One is the application for the coverage and the other is any blood testing that was done to obtain the policy. It can’t be overstated that the actions of the life insurer during the underwriting period are extremely important when a life insurance claim was denied because of hypertension.
NOTE: Just because high blood pressure was not disclosed on a life insurance application does NOT mean the claim won’t be paid. We’ve gotten many claims paid, even after they were denied, for the reason of non-disclosed high blood pressure.
