- All non-smokers requiring medical evidence undertake an instant cotinine test
- Medical examinations are usually undertaken by a doctor but a nurse may perform these on occasion subject to clients location
- Automatic requirements are based on total sums assured with VitalityLife
- For ages 65+ regardless of sum assured we won't ask for an HIV test
