Critical Illness Insurance is a form of health insurance that reduces the financial impact of a serious illness, paying out a lump sum payment should you become seriously ill.
This insurance allows you to protect your finances, retirement investments and lost income, helping to eliminate the financial stress related to being unwell and unable to work.
How does Critical Illness Insurance work?
A Critical Illness Insurance policy lists several qualifying critical illnesses. In the event of diagnoses, a tax-free, lump-sum is paid out, to be used as the recipient sees fit. This amount can cover medical expenses, household expenses, helping to replace the loss of income.
While our provincial health care plans cover most medical expenses, what about travel? Parking? Food and lodging, the loss of income from being unable to work or a family member who becomes a primary caregiver? That’s where Critical Illness Insurance comes in to help ease the financial burden.
Your health and recovery are the most important things
While no one expects to become ill, when a devasting diagnosis happens, with a Critical Illness Insurance policy in place, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your finances are protected, so you can focus on getting better.
