Breast cancer has four stages. Depending on the stage, surgery performed and recovery management, i.e. regular checkups, etc. life insurance may be possible to obtain. Depending upon the history and current medical condition there are three possible avenues to explore based on what stage the cancer is in: fully underwritten, simplified issue or guaranteed issue.

Yes, it is possible to get life insurance after breast cancer. If the cancer was in situ or stage 1 and able to be removed surgically, you may be able to get a medically underwritten policy after a year or so. For all stages of cancer, there are simplified issue policies that can be obtained a year or two after the last treatment.

Contact a good impaired risk life insurance agent to go over your health details and find the best priced policy at this point in time, plus make a plan for getting lower priced coverage in the future.
