Why Do I need Critical Illness Insurance?
Being diagnosed with a Critical Illness can be devastating both emotionally and financially. A Critical illness cannot only affect your ability to earn income, but it can also create the need for extra funds to pay for modifications to your home, medical equipment, nursing care, time off for a spouse, etc.
Critical Illness insurance provides a tax free lump sum payment if you are diagnosed with one of the covered illnesses under the policy contract (such as cancer, heart attack, stroke) and survive for a specified period of time. This type of insurance is a great complement to disability income protection.
