Life Insurance Rates:

In addition to age and sex， another important factor determining life insurance premiums is health condition－medical examinations can raise premiums or lower them. Life insurers perform risk selection－that is， they assess the risk level of policyholders－to stabilize their risk exposure. They also believe that setting premiums based on the risk level is fairer to policyholders. This risk selection is based on age， sex， and health condition.

Smoking and Premium Rates
The Surgeon General report on smoking and health in 1964 raised public awareness of the health risk of smoking by indicating that smokers had a higher death rate than nonsmokers. The life insurance industry also focused on the report， and State Mutual was the first to introduce premium discounts for nonsmokers on the basis that charging the same premium was unfair to them. Thus policyholders who were deemed to be equally healthy in medical examinations paid different premiums based on whether they smoked.
