Med supp UW over 150 BP

[ValeRosso]

Anyone know if there’s a company who will approve this in UW:

Female, 73
153/81 BP (on losartan)
Heart palpitations (controlled, on metoprolol)

All the carriers I have are a denial because of the high bp.

I've never seen an app that asked for BP readings.

Same but I am sure it is something that comes back during underwriting.

It didn’t ask for BP on the app however it was during the phone interview.

Aetna does.

Did you try ACE or Lumico/Elips?

Are you sure they denied because of 153/81? That's not that high.

I just tried several times...just spins and spins. Must be on their end.

100% sure, it was specifically the BP over 150. Their UW guide doesn’t even list this unfortunately.
