Frequently asked questions

You don't need to share your name, phone, or email when getting quotes. The tool asks for birth date, sex, current health condition, nicotine use, desired insurance level, and policy period. Those six data points are sufficient for carriers to return their rates. Your name, location and complete health records only come into play if you proceed to apply.

The amounts you see are what each insurer charges for the rating category you chose. After you submit an application, the carrier will examine your complete history and may confirm, improve, or adjust your rating. Nothing shown here constitutes a binding insurance offer or a guaranteed price.

Selecting an offer continues to the carriers' own secure application, pre-filled with your information. The carriers handle the application process from there. You're able to save your spot and continue later, and all signing takes place digitally. Susman Insurance Agency, a licensed California intermediary (License 0B75129), coordinates this process.

It varies based on which insurer you choose, the coverage you want, and your health details. A lot of carriers now offer quick decisions for applicants within age and benefit limits using just your form and records—no physical exam required. Each quote you see says whether an exam is needed, possibly needed, or not needed for that specific option.

The right term depends on your situation. A term should cover your biggest years of financial vulnerability: an active mortgage, dependent children in the home, or a business line of credit. Longer terms mean higher monthly fees but freeze your rate longer. Try various 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 year options to compare cost versus security.
