In case of policies with high value of life cover in a short time span from the date of the policy issuance, insurers may wish to explore more details on the cause of death. In case the death was unnatural or within a year of the policy being taken, they may dig in for more details from the family of the deceased. When it comes to claim settlement, insurers would want to make very sure that the claim is genuine and not, say a case of suicide or any chronic ailment. In case of chronic ailment, which was not mentioned in the policy at the time of taking the policy, the insurer has the right to deny the claim owing to suppression of facts when taking the policy. Common suspicions are around the smoking status of the individual and pre-existing conditions such as hypertension, high cholesterol, and diabetes.
