\u201cT<\/strong>hings Have Changed – Part Five\u201d \u2026 Commentary by Chris Morgan<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What if I was declined for Life Insurance cover years ago because of HIV & Hepatitis B?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a result of our “Things Have Changed” campaign we are getting more and more people coming back to us who were declined for Life Insurance over the last 13 years. Mostly people who are living with HIV and had also been diagnosed either Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Co-Risk area is something I have worked at very hard to resolve with insurers over the last two years. My initial focus was to encourage them to cover people with HIV and Hepatitis – but lots of good changes have come from this also with other medical conditions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m pleased to say we are now finding Life Insurance for many people who were declined over the last 13 years, if this was you – then don’t hold back things have changed – call us to see what is now possible for people with HIV and other medical conditions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Case Example, Betty, Age 47, Healthcare Support Worker \u2026<\/strong> HIV & Hepatitis<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Betty has been declined for Life Insurance over 10 years ago and recently found out through her clinic that Unusual Risks were now able to get cover for people who had been diagnosed with both HIV and Hepatitis. She was very emotional when she found out that she could finally cover her mortgage and protect her family and children. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even if you were declined for cover by an insurer in the past this does not mean that your are uninsurable forever. We are now able to insurer people with HIV who have also been diagnosed in the past with Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, Tuberculosis, Pneumonia, STIs, Syphilis, Anemia<\/strong> and many other medical conditions. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If You Have Been<\/strong> Declined For Cover By Your Bank or Financial Adviser ? Things have changed and we can help !<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the pandemic we have been more determined than ever to make sure that everyone is able to access some form of Life Insurance. We believe it is a basic human right for people, to protect their mortgages, debts and families. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have encountered many people who have been adversely affected by the decisions of Life Insurance companies. We believe more than ever in “Life Insurance for All”<\/strong> and are able to guarantee access to some form of Life Insurance for everyone aged between 18-64. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who are Unusual Risks?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are the UK\u2019s leading specialists at placing HIV Life Insurance and HIV Life Assurance. Chris Morgan, our lead financial adviser, led a decade long campaign to secure Life Insurance for the HIV Community and has been advising the HIV Community for over two decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
