Older adults in Fairfax County, Virginia, often look at term life insurance for seniors when they want a larger death benefit than a final expense policy provides, for a set number of years. No two households in Fairfax County, Virginia, which sits in Northern Virginia just outside Washington, D.C., and is the most populous county in the state, carry quite the same obligations, which is why senior term life insurance is best sized one family at a time. Premiums are based on age and health at application, so the same coverage generally costs noticeably more at 65 than at 55. Military families in Hampton Roads and federal workers in Northern Virginia often have group coverage, but it is worth asking what happens to it after you leave the service or change jobs. Larger senior term policies often require a medical exam or records review, while smaller amounts may be available through simplified no-exam underwriting. Married couples in Fairfax County sometimes use senior term coverage to protect a spouse who would lose pension or Social Security income if the other died first. If you live in Fairfax County, a licensed agent can walk you through senior term life insurance in one call, with no commitment.

Not always. Some carriers offer no-exam term coverage at older ages, often for smaller amounts. Larger policies are more likely to require an exam or a records review.
