Hi,

I'm job seeking at the moment (41 yr old male) whos adopted. Been working till last sept in the same job for 15 years in a place that required none.

for anything like life assurance to pensions when they asked about family history I just ticked everything NO.

If I was to need a medical for a job in the future and told them I had no idea of my family medical history would I have to undergo a more robust physical exam ?

Should I just lie and tick all the boxes for various conditions NO ?

Been to a doctor rarely in the last 6 years (maybe twice and nothing of issue came up).

Any advice ?

Thanks.

You might get more help from someone who knows about insurance? Its more of a liability thing I'd imagine
