About the Colorado Life & Health exam

The Life & Health exam licenses you to sell life insurance, annuities, and accident and health coverage. Every state writes its own version, and each one tests both general insurance knowledge and that state's insurance law.

What it covers

  • Life insurance policy types, provisions and riders
  • Annuities and how they are taxed
  • Accident and health insurance, including HMOs and managed care
  • Your state's producer licensing, marketing and unfair trade practice rules

Who takes it

New agents and career changers getting a first producer license, and agents adding life and health to an existing license.

Frequently asked questions

Colorado publishes 80 scored questions on each of the Health and Life exams. Exams also include a few unscored pretest questions.

Colorado tests Health and Life as separate exams, so each is a separate sitting with its own score. Study the Life topics for the Life exam and the Accident & Health topics for the Health exam.

The passing score is set by Colorado. Most states use 70%, but check the Colorado candidate handbook from the testing vendor for the exact figure.

Colorado uses Pearson VUE, an independent testing company that schedules and runs licensing exams. Its candidate handbook explains how to register and what to bring.

The testing company lists an exam fee of $41, paid when you register; the exact amount depends on which exam you take. The Colorado Department of Insurance lists $44 for the license itself, which depends on the license type. Fees can change, so confirm them when you book.

It depends on the state and license. Check the Colorado Department of Insurance for the current Life & Health pre-licensing requirement before you register.

Retake rules come from Colorado and its testing vendor: you pay the fee again and, in some cases, wait a set number of days. Check the Colorado candidate handbook from the testing vendor for the exact figure.

Passing is one step. You then apply for the license through the Colorado Department of Insurance, usually with a background check and a fee.

Yes. Each state writes its own version, combining general life & health knowledge with Colorado insurance law.
