Critical Illness Insurance
When a major illness strikes, critical illness insurance can help pay for extra medical and living expenses your primary medical plan doesn’t cover.
Insurance Tip
The number of illnesses covered in critical illness policies varies. Some policies cover only 26 diseases, others cover up to 154 various illnesses. Make sure the one you purchase covers as many illnesses as possible.1
If you’re diagnosed with a certain illness specified in your critical illness plan, your insurance benefit can be used to:
- Replace lost income if you’re unable to work during your illness.
- Pay medical insurance co-pays and deductibles associated with expensive critical illness treatments, such as chemotherapy or open-heart surgery.
- Pursue alternative treatments or medication not covered by your medical insurance.
