Coronary heart disease may prove to be a little less damaging to life insurance prices.
The life insurance arm of Hartford Financial Services Group Inc., Hartford (NYSE:HIG), says it is cutting the cost of life insurance for many older U.S. residents who have been successfully treated for coronary heart disease.
The new rules apply to men and women who are ages 71 to 85, are otherwise in good health, and have no history of cancer, diabetes or other serious medical conditions other than coronary heart disease.
