Will I pay more for long-term care insurance if I have uveitis?
Every long-term care insurance company is different, but, generally, you won’t pay more for long-term care insurance due to a history of uveitis. Still, it’s important to work with an long-term care insurance professional who can help you shop around and compare several different policies because prices and benefits can vary significantly from one policy to the next.
If I have uveitis will I have to take a physical in order to qualify for long-term care insurance?
Some long-term care insurers do not require a physical if you have uveitis. Most long-term care insurance companies will review your medical records in order to determine if they can insure you. Ask your long-term care insurance specialist what underwriting criteria each company will use before deciding which long-term care insurance policy is best for you.
