General Knowledge - Critical Illness Insurance


Critical illness can happen to anyone, and often does. If you are diagnosed with a critical illness, recovery should be your first concern. Having Critical Illness Insurance will allow you to focus on your health, because it can take the stress of worry about money away. Insurance will pay for a large sum of your medical treatments for a critical illness, and many companies have as many as 30 illnesses insured, including cancer, heart attack, stroke and multiple sclerosis. Most insurance companies will allow you to use the money provided for your critical illness any way that you need.

For example, if you decide you want to pay for hospital fees yourself, you can use your insurance money to avoid drawing money out of personal savings, help to pay off debt, allows your partner to take time off work to look after you or any other way you choose. There are different levels of critical illness insurance, and the one you decide on depends on how much you can afford. Having basic coverage will usually cover five or six conditions, while comprehensive coverage will cover all of the illnesses the insurance company has to offer. Comprehensive coverage will cost more, but a good company should provide about 80% coverage, even for basic insurance.

Costs of insurance will also depend on your age, health and other lifestyle factors. The necessity of having critical illness insurance is often higher than people might think. Statistics show that a person is more likely to contract a critical illness than they are to die before the age of 75. A critical illness can drastically change your lifestyle because you may not be in a condition to work as you had before experiencing the illness. Insurance can help you financially during treatment as well as after recovery to help you maintain a good quality of life. Many companies will also financially help out your family in case of your own death.
