Whether the purchaser is a business partner, a dependent, or a long-time friend, in Richmond, VA, it is allowed. If you&#8217;re considering purchasing life insurance for a non-relative, our agents at Bacon Insurance Group can answer your questions and help you find the right policy.<\/p>\n<h2>Requirements for Purchasing Life Insurance<\/h2>\n<p>There are a few things that may need to be completed or verified before a life insurance application can be approved. These include insurable interest, consent, a medical examination, and policy owner and premium payments.<\/p>\n<h2>Insurable Interest<\/h2>\n<p>As a non-relative seeking a life insurance policy, you must prove how the death of the person being insured would create a financial burden on you. For example, say you are a dependent who relies on financial support from a non-relative.<\/p>\n<h2>Consent<\/h2>\n<p>The person who is receiving the life insurance policy must agree to the policy before any private information, such as information from the primary doctor attesting to the person&#8217;s medical status and\/or condition, can be released.<\/p>\n<h2>Medical Examination<\/h2>\n<p>Insurers don&#8217;t always require a medical exam, but some do, depending on the type of policy you are seeking. We will discuss the details with you.<\/p>\n<h2>Premium Ownership and Payments<\/h2>\n<p>The non-relative will receive the statements regarding premium payments and will be solely responsible for making the payments. This is not the responsibility of the person being insured.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Contact Us<\/h2>\n<p>At Bacon Insurance Group, we&#8217;re here to assist the Richmond, VA, community with insurance coverage.
