TAL has developed a webinar on diabetes to help financial advisers better understand the condition when making claims.

It focuses on the prevalence, diagnosis and treatment of diabetes, and medical terminology relevant to underwriting and product definitions. It is similar to TAL’s cancer course.

GM Health Services Sally Phillips says the course will help advisers choose the right cover for clients. It also examines support mechanisms the insurer offers clients with diabetes.

The webinar is accessed through the TAL Risk Academy.
