MassMutual's Life underwriting
guidelines have been improved and updated for major, favorable
revisions regarding prostate cancer. Doctors have revised the
combinations of prostate cancer factors so that stages better represent
prognoses. Reclassifications and new mortality improvement data from
current treatments will improve life insurance underwriting offers for
many clients.

Case Study
|
|
|
|
George is a 67-year-old manager of a
pet supply store. At his annual exam about 8 months ago, his PSA was
found to be elevated at 7.1 ng/mL. Biopsy of the prostate revealed
cancer, and he underwent a prostatectomy. The tumor was found to have
extended throughout the prostate, but did not spread beyond it. The
cancer was noted to be Gleason Score 6. George's PSA is now so low that
it is undetectable by the laboratory.
