Every health conditions needs to be declared no matter how old the event was. This is especially true if there was admission or records being recorded. It is then up to the underwriters to look at the case and issue or call for medical reports.
If they do so, let them check/investigate. Even if it takes time. At least you know for sure if the policy is accepted, you'll have a peace of mind that it will not be declined due to non-declaration.
If not declared it will be a basis for claims declination should the insurer later found out and contest for withholding vital information that may impact the policy inception/premiums.
It is the duty of the agent act as the underwriter's ears and eyes and to write all information gathered from the client in the proposal form, especially on the health declaration.
As a client, if you had declared it to the agent and the agent did not write it in the proposal form, you may call the customer service to inquire whether it will be an issue in the near future. Get a written confirmation from the insurance company, never oral.
