How do insurance companies detect nicotine?

Q: Do life insurance companies randomly test for tobacco use? A: No. But it’s likely they will test your blood, urine, or saliva (via a mouth swab) before approving your application. And those tests will detect nicotine in your system if you’ve smoked or used other tobacco products recently. Aug 13, 2018
