Ill
Health and Annuities
If you have had problems
with your health, even relatively minor conditions, you might
qualify for an enhanced/ill health annuity. There are five
companies which offer annuities in this market, some of which
only offer impaired life annuities.
It is estimated that
about 30% of all people who take out an annuity could qualify
for an enhanced annuity based on their health, and who could get
a bigger annuity too. But many miss out because they do not
think they qualify.
It is not just
serious conditions which qualify, but sometimes even less
serious conditions. e.g. high blood pressure, when combined
with other less serious conditions such as asthma, or high
cholesterol could qualify you for an enhanced annuity.
Smokers
If
you regularly smoke cigarettes or rolling tobacco you
will also qualify for a better annuity too, as there are
some companies who offer smoker rates.
