Navigating through uncertainty
COVID-19 underwriting guidance available
Updated 28 September 2020
As more research emerges on COVID-19, we update our guidelines in Life Guide to help you navigate through the uncertainty and continue to underwrite with confidence.
What's new:
- improved wording to reflect changing circumstances
- guidance around COVID-19 symptoms, but negative antigen test
- guidance for individuals participating in vaccine trials
This is a supplement to earlier information that includes:
- criteria for current and past infections
- guidelines for possible exposures
- underlying conditions, complications and co-morbidities
- severity of disease and hospital admission
- underwriting requirements after COVID-19
- broader antigen and antibody testing
We've also developed suggested underwriting screening questions which will be available through our Magnum automated underwriting platform.
