The factors considered for calculating life insurance premium are age, gender and health.

Basically, a younger person has more age span so they have longer maturity and the premium is also cheaper.

Medical history of the family also play very important role. Suppose the person’s family members suffer diabetes, blood pressure or any other illness, then the concerned person is asked for medical checkup and is put under the category of high risk buyer. Later, the insurance company does a complete study on his health reports and plans with the team whether to insure the person or not.
