John Hancock: Offering early cancer screening to even more policyholders

01-22-2024

John Hancock believes their customers should have access to the latest tools and resources that can help them live longer, healthier, better lives. That is why they are excited to share that they're expanding access to Galleri® — a multi-cancer early detection test from GRAIL — to eligible policyholders who purchased a life insurance policy from them before John Hancock Vitality was available.

Eligible policyholders age 50 or older with a policy issued between January 1, 2005 and December 31, 2009 will receive a letter from Brooks Tingle, President & CEO of John Hancock, detailing what the Galleri test is and how these policyholders can request the test at no cost. Here is a snapshot of some of the eligibility criteria:

  • Permanent policies greater than $250,000 where the insured is 50 or older
  • Policy issue date between January 1, 2005 and December 31, 2009
  • Policy issued in one of the following states: Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Mississippi, Nebraska, Ohio, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Virginia, West Virginia and Wyoming

The Galleri test is available to the policy insured (not owner). If the policy owner and insured are different, the owner will receive a notification that the Galleri test was offered to the insured. This most recent mailing is just the first phase of making Galleri accessible to even more of John Hancock policyholders, and they will continue to expand this offering over the coming months.

The Galleri test is truly redefining what is possible when it comes to early cancer detection, and John Hancock is proud to offer access to cutting-edge advancements like this. For your reference, a sample of the mailing is included below.
