Critical Illness Insurance

Why it's necessary for you and your spouse

When diagnosed with cancer, heart attack, stroke, kidney failure or other critical conditions, your priorities can change in an instant.

You may want funds for fast access to medical treatments that are often costly, alternative or experimental - or only available in another country. Maybe you'll want the freedom to create a new lifestyle that's more accommodating to your changing abilities. Perhaps you'll want to go on the vacation you've always dreamed of. Or you may simply want to personally settle your affairs while you still can.

Critical Illness Insurance Highlights and Optional Benefits Include:

  • 100% of your money back if you stay healthy
  • Coverage for over 20 common critical conditions
  • Spend your lump-sum benefit on anything you choose
  • Best Doctors Care Management Services at no extra charge
  • Rate banding to keep higher benefit amounts affordable
  • Up to $1,000,000 in coverage
