How Does it Work?
Critical Illness Cover pays out a lump sum if you’re diagnosed with a critical illness listed in your policy. This payout can help with medical expenses, covering your mortgage, or simply maintaining your family’s lifestyle while you recover.

You pay monthly instalments for the duration of the policy, but the cover will cease if you stop making payments.
Unlike life insurance, there is no cash value, and the insurer won’t pay out if you die.
Each plan is tailored to individual circumstances, ensuring you get the protection you need.
