Critical Illness Cover

What is it?

A Critical Illness plan is designed to pay out a lump sum or regular income on the diagnosis of certain specified illnesses. It is often ‘bolted on’ to a life assurance policy as an additional benefit but can also be a standalone plan.

Who is it for?

This type of plan is designed for those individuals or families who want a lump sum or regular income if they are diagnosed with a critical illness. An example of where this lump sum could be used is to repay a loan, mortgage, or perhaps pay for time off work. The lump sum could even be used to pay for any necessary alterations to your home.
The quality of cover and the illnesses covered can vary significantly between different providers. As a protection adviser, we can help you find the plan that best meets your requirements.
