# Limited Time: Guaranteed Acceptance for Critical Illness Insurance

 13 February 2021

Although we never want to believe that we could become severely ill, as a physician, you know that it happens to the best of people. A serious illness can leave the patient and their family reeling; not just emotionally, but also financially.

If you should become seriously ill, Critical Illness insurance can help relieve the financial burden and support your healing. Because our mission is to help protect Texas physicians, TMA Insurance Trust is providing members with Guaranteed Acceptance for $20,000 of TMA Member Critical Illness insurance, now through March 12.*

## Why Critical Illness Insurance

Critical illness insurance differs from primary health insurance in one very important way: the benefit is paid directly to you if there is a diagnosis of a life-threatening illness – like cancer, heart attack, or stroke. Unlike standard health insurance, your benefit may be used any way you choose.

You may choose to use your benefit to help maintain your current lifestyle while you are out of work and your income is reduced. Or, you might use the benefit to help cover the numerous expenses that typically accompany a critical illness, such as:

- Transportation services to treatment centers
- In-home caregivers
- Paying expenses for relatives who visit
- Additional costs for child or senior care
- Specialty drugs or treatments
- Ongoing debt payments

Some have chosen to use their benefit to recuperate with a family trip or to fulfill the dream of a once-in-a-lifetime travel experience. You are the best judge of how you would use your benefit, and with Critical Illness Insurance, you are in control of this choice.

## Speak with a TMA Insurance Trust Advisor:

***The offer of $20,000 of TMA Member Critical Illness Insurance with guaranteed acceptance is only available to new participants. Current participants in the TMA Member Critical Illness Insurance Plan are not eligible for this $20,000 guaranteed acceptance offer.**

** **

**This coverage is not health insurance coverage (often referred to as "Major Medical Coverage").**

**This type of plan is NOT considered "minimum essential coverage" under the Affordable Care Act and therefore does NOT satisfy the individual mandate that you have health insurance coverage.**

** **
