Critical illness insurance

No one plans to get sick, but when something unexpected happens, you can help yourself and your family by being financially prepared.

Critical illness insurance is designed to help financially support patients before, during and after treatment by providing a lump-sum benefit when a critical illness, as defined by the policy, is diagnosed, and you satisfy the waiting period.

Consider some of the potential uses for the funds from a critical illness insurance policy:

• Modifications to your home
• Private nursing or domestic help
• Timely treatment outside Canada
• Additional staff to run your business
