CRITICAL ILLNESS INSURANCE
Critical illness insurance which is also known as serious illness cover; protects individuals from unexpected loss of income through serious illness. The types of illnesses covered by this insurance are: heart conditions such as stroke and heart attacks, multiple sclerosis, many stages and forms of cancer, permanent and total disability, and many more. Typically; a one-off, tax free lump sum is paid out to the insured person if they become critically ill with any of the pre-specified conditions covered in the policy. The insurance payment can help with mortgage, rent and other debts, and also the money can be used to adapt a home if a policy holder becomes disabled due to illness. If you have concerns about maintaining your standard of living should you fall critically ill, please contact a Marchwood IFA protection insurance expert today.
