Manhattan Life application underwriting questions
Manhattan Life Health Underwriting Questions
The following are the application questions for the Manhattan Life Fixed Benefit and supplemental plans.
You will note that some of the questions are asked more than one time with different time frames. That is because you are applying for two separate policies at the same time and each has it’s own set of questions.
To review the benefits of the specific plans associated with these questions, please visit the Manhattan Life page.
