Health insurance for over 50s

Age is one factor insurers consider. Many policies are available to people over 50, subject to the insurer's terms.

General information only, not insurance or medical advice. health-quote.co.uk is an FCA introducer, not a broker or insurer. We do not recommend policies or arrange cover.

Key points

Underwriting may be more likely to reflect existing medical history as people get older.

Our form asks for year of birth so the broker has this information.

What to check in the policy documents

Policy terms differ between insurers. When looking at this topic, the documents to read are the policy summary, the full policy wording and your schedule. Points worth checking include: any maximum age to start a policy; how age affects renewal terms; underwriting options available.

This page cannot confirm whether any person, condition or treatment would be covered. That depends on the insurer's terms and decision.
