Home News & Commentary Insurance – Still Open for Business

Hopefully you’re reading this from the comfort and safety of your own home. These are uncertain times to say the least. We’ve all had to make changes to the way that we conduct business while we move through the coronavirus crisis, and the insurance industry is no different. I wanted to let everybody know that most insurance companies have now relaxed a lot of their underwriting requirements, as they are limiting home nurse visits to complete medical exams. The majority of the companies also now allow for digital signatures and e-delivery of insurance policies. If you are interested in or need insurance, just know that the process of applying has changed, but the industry is still very much open for business, and perhaps has never been so relevant.
