    Not all life insurance requires an examination, but usually the plans that don't require an exam cost more to the insured. It becomes a question of providing a blood and urine sample vs. paying more over the life of the policy. To get the best price for coverage usually you want to provide information on your medical history and your current health. Almost every company checks your medical history as you give them permission to do so when you sign the application. Those that look at your current health via blood and urine testing are just going a bit further. By going further they can offer very competitive rates and a healthy person can save money.

    Some life insurance policies do require an exam and some don't.

    Policies with very small face amounts (under $50,000) usually do not require an exam.

    People with serious health problems often take no exam policies because their exam results and medical records disqualify them from medically underwritten policies. 

    Many people prefer no exam policies because they hate needles, or do not want to take the time to do the exam. For those in the Standard health rating range, the cost of a nonmed policy is often very competitive with a policy that requires an exam.
