Heart Disease and Insurance

by Keith__0, Jul 08, 1998 12:00AM

  I am a 38 yr old male living in the U.K. I have a VSD with secondary PH, I
  am purchasing a new house and need life assurance.  Does anyone know of a reputable
  Insurance company or broker that is sympothetic to people with a heart problem?

Dear Keith:
Being based in the United States, I am not very familiar with life insurance companies in the United Kingdom.  I know that you would have an extremely difficult time getting life insurance in the U.S.A.  It may be wise for you to meet with a financial consultant locally; that person could direct you to possible insurance companies.
I wish you the best of luck.
