Perfect answer. You forgot to mention, a positive result may affect their ability to get life insurance in the future. We (thank goodness) cannot be discriminated for this with healthcare but can be for life insurance policy’s.

Not only life insurance, but long term care insurance as well. Many years ago husband and I bought long term care insurance through my workplace. He had no health issues but I had moderate osteoporosis at the time, premiums were higher. My heart issues developed much later and he developed a few blips on his health status, too. I do not think I would have been granted coverage once the heart issues became very serious.
