Can A Recovering Alcoholic Get Life Insurance? 
A recovering alcoholic can usually get life insurance . The rates will depend a lot on how long they have been sober , the type of treatment they had , when the treatment was , whether there have been relapses , and whether there are any DUI 's or traffic accidents related to drinking in the past 10 years . If not enough time has passed to get a medically underwritten policy , those who meet the age guidelines can get a simplified issue or guaranteed issue policy , in most states .
