Just heard from Genworth UW today... NO diabetes unless WELL controlled on Oral Rx only AND No tobacco, within build chart, and No cardio history. Absolutely NO INSULIN.
I never said Genworth. Genworth is probably the toughest company when it comes to any history of diabetes.
There are companies that accept insulin. Most accept up to 50 to 75 units. Some can take up to 100 units in some cases.

??? Do what on my own? I just reported that Genworth UW says about diabetes and their LTCi. I am studying the product.

Mutual of Omaha.
Bill,
Mutual of Omaha/United of Omaha won't insure this gentleman because he's taking over 50 units of insulin per day:
50 units of Lantus AND
2 to 4 units of Humalog per day.
Mutual of Omaha/United of Omaha's maximum is 50 units of insulin per day.
