Most people don’t like to contemplate what would happen if they were diagnosed with a critical illness. But with survival rates increasing, critical illness cover could provide that all important financial cushion. In the wake of a critical illness survivors can be faced with major financial difficulties, not all can return to work and many need home modifications or private therapeutic care. Paid out through a lump sum, critical illness cover can help alleviate these financial burdens and manage the day to day monthly bills.
Critical illness cover premiums tend to rise with age and will depend on both your and your family’s medical history. Linking your critical illness cover alongside life insurance, can often reduce the costs.
No-one can guarantee they will not be the victim of an accident or be diagnosed with a serious illness. But you can guarantee that the bills will keep arriving. When faced with this difficult situation the majority of people depend on state benefits, which are often below the necessary level. Paid through monthly premiums, an income protection policy is essentially ‘piece of mind’ insurance. Often paying around half your income, the regular tax-free income helps to relieve financial hardship and maintain your standard of living.
