Sample Life Insurance Quotes from Ohio
Below we’ve provided some sample quotes for a healthy male living in the state of Ohio. The quotes are for 10 year term, 20 year term, and 30 year term life insurance from age 30 to 70 for $500,000 coverage.
Age 10 Year Term 20 Year Term 30 Year Term
Male Age 30 $155 $245 $385
Male Age 40 $195 $350 $621
Male Age 50 $485 $930 $1,535
Male Age 60 $1,315 $2,505 $4,458
Male Age 70 $3,999 $9,490 *$11,811 — All Quotes Per Year
*30 year term is not available in Ohio after age 65 with any companies presently, so I’ve provided a quote for a level payment policy for the 30 year term, male age 70 category. This is actually not a term policy, but a Genworth Colony SM Lifelong Universal Life policy with guaranteed level premiums to age 100, which is similar to 30 year term, but built on a universal life foundation.

Insurance with Medical Issues
Some life insurance companies are much more liberal in Ohio about certain health concerns than others. If we take the example of an individual with a history of hypertension, you’ll find that each insurance company is going to treat that issue differently.
That’s why it’s so important to speak to a knowledgeable, independent Ohio life insurance agent about your needs, so he or she can recommend the company who will be the most lenient about your health history and most likely offer the lowest premium.
We’ve had great success getting residents of Ohio offers for medical issues such as diabetes type II (as good as Preferred Non Smoker in some cases) with ING. We’ve gotten Preferred Best offers for people on medication for depression or anxiety, as well as preferred best offers for life insurance with high blood pressure. We’ve also successfully obtained Standard offers for individuals with heart disorders such as coronary artery disease (CAD), stent placement, history of heart attack, as well as valve replacement.
Ohio Term Life Insurance Rates for Smokers
We do offer great rates for term and whole life insurance policies for cigarettes smokers, as well as for men using other forms of tobacco besides cigarettes, such as pipes, cigars, or chewing tobacco.
In fact, non smoking (non tobacco) rates can be achieved at some life insurance carriers, depending on the type of tobacco you use. Use the form on the right for low cost term life insurance for smokers quotes.
How are Premiums Calculated?
The five variables which determine your premium are:
1. Age
2. Gender – Males pay more than females.
3. Health Rating – The better health you’re in, the lower your premium.
4. Amount of Coverage
5. Length of Term – Shorter terms (10 and 15 years) cost less than longer terms such as 20 and 20 years.
Term and Whole Life Differences
Most of our clients in Ohio need term life insurance. Term is generally less expensive than whole life and serves to meet a temporary coverage need, such as 10 or 20 years. Also, I should take this opportunity to say that while we recently wrote an Ohio National Life Insurance review, we are by no means limited to companies headquartered in Ohio.
We work with carriers all over the nation. For example, Genworth Life Insurance is stationed in Lynchburg, VA, but we can still sell their products in Ohio, like the Colony Term UL. Many companies like ING and Prudential are headquartered in other states, but their products have also been approved by the Ohio Department of Insurance to be sold in Ohio.
Back to term life insurance now. It is most commonly needed for salary replacement. So if you plan to work 20 more years, a 20 year term policy might be the most suitable product for you. Perhaps you only plan to work 10 more years, in which case a 10 year policy could suit you fine.
Term life insurance does not build cash value, so if you cancel it, you won’t get any money returned to you. A term life insurance premium simply charges you the least amount of premium for the most amount of coverage. Guaranteed level term is the most affordable type of Ohio Life insurance available.
10 year term means the premiums stay fixed for 10 years, and 15 year term means the payments are fixed for 15 years, and so on. Whole life insurance provides guaranteed coverage, and builds cash value.
If cash accumulation is not your goal, you might really want a guaranteed universal life policy to age 100, which still offers guaranteed level premiums for life, but will accrue little to no cash value.
Taxation to Consider
Presently, death benefits are not charged income tax to residents of Ohio, or any other state for that matter, as long as you don’t deduct the premiums
However, life insurance benefits may be part of your taxable estate upon death, so be sure to consult an attorney and tax advisor to try to minimize estate taxes.
