Insurance agents suggest to visit your primary care physician before shopping for a life insurance policy. All standard forms of life insurance require a medical exam, so it is important to make sure that any issues you had and resolved are updated properly. For example, if you have been a smoker or overweight and changed your habits for the better, you want your profile to have that updated info so you could be rated better.
