I have PCOS and currently applying a Life Insurance. The insurance company have rated me and removed critical illness benefit from the proposed policy. I have undergone check up and meeting with them. When I asked an explanation for the rating, the agent just sent me a screenshot of email from their underwriter that says "to delete Critical Illness Benefit due to PCOS". The agent said that the basis was the consultation and latest ultrasounds.
I just want a detailed explanation to know why the Critical Illness Benefit was removed. I understand that I have PCOS , but I want details of their assessment. Did they see it as severe and life threatening? Did they see it as not manageable?
Because from what I see, it's not affecting my life that much. In fact, last year, both my ovaries are polycystic, but now, it's just one. And I have disclosed this on the checkup, too.
My questions are:
1. Do I have a right to request this detailed assessment information?
2. Do other insurance companies give normal rates depending on the severity of PCOS?
3. Is it such a bad thing to have a rated insurance policy on my record in case I accept these terms? Where else should this record matter aside from applying for another insurance policy?
