The most common way to purchase term life insurance is by filling out an application, either prompted by a broker or an online application which may or may not be initiated by a broker.
The application length depends on the insurance company you are applying with, whether or not it is a simplified issue or fully underwritten policy. A pa ramedical may or may not be required.
To buy Term life insurance, you must start out finding the policy for which you want to apply. You can go to websites that have free quote engines to start your search. If instant quotes are provided, you can change the face amount and term length to get an idea of prices.
Then talk to an agent or representative of that website to confirm the best policy for your particular age, gender, build, smoking status, health, and other risk factors. Once you have selected a policy, you can complete an application by paper or online. Some policies do not require an exam, while others will require a free life insurance exam.
When everything has been completed and the underwriter has had time to review your exam (sometimes, the insurance company will also order your medical records), they will approve your policy at a certain rating. With our agency, if that rating is higher than we expected, we help you adjust the policy to fit your budget.
Once the first premium is paid, your policy is in effect and locked in for the length of your Term policy.

Term Life Insurance can be purchased from any company for it is life insurance except that term insurance is only for a specified period of 10, 15, 25, or 30 years depending on policy. Term insurance cost less but does not build a cash value and is not until the life of the policyholder. However, term insurance is still a great benefit. I also specialize in term insurance. I know of many other coverages that are added to term policies in order to make then more unique and beneficial such as child riders and other income options.
