- Critical Illness
Critical illness insurance is a relatively new form of protection that provides money while you are still alive. It has tremendous flexibility if you become critically ill because there are no requirements for how you spend the lump-sum benefit that you receive. You don't have to get approval for expenditures, provide any receipts, or even use the lump-sum benefit to pay for medical expenses.
Critical illness insurance provides you with a lump-sum payment to be used however you see fit. If you want to try alternative therapies, be treated outside of the country, hire someone to take care of you, or hire a nanny to take care of your children ... you choose how to spend your money. Critical illness insurance covers specific illnesses only.
Critical illness plan provides a way of helping to protect yourself against the high cost of rebuilding your lifestyle following a critical illness. It offers a lump-sum payment while you are living which usually becomes payable 30 days after the diagnosis of one of the critical illness insured conditions as defined in the policy. How you use it is up to you.
