Non-medical Application 

In insurance, a non-medical application is a type of insurance application that does not require the applicant to undergo a medical examination as part of the underwriting process. Instead, the insurer will make a determination based on information provided by the applicant, such as their age, gender, medical history, lifestyle, occupation, and other factors that may affect their risk profile.
