The first step for enrolling in a plan is to get term life insurance quotes from different companies. One can also make use of internet to get the quotes. As every company has its own style of working, the quotes offered by each one of them will be unique.

These quotes are based on the guidelines set out in the rating class. The rating classification is, in turn, based on one’s medical history and the results of the medical exam.

The classification also differs between whole life insurance and term life insurance.

What do you understand by Table Rating?
