Schedule Your Free ReviewThe Problem
A major health event like cancer, a heart attack, or a stroke can result in massive out-of-pocket medical bills and non-medical expenses (like travel for treatment or lost income) that standard health insurance or Medicare won't cover.
What It Is
Cancer, Heart Attack, and Stroke insurance is a supplemental policy that pays a lump-sum cash benefit directly to you (not the hospital) upon the first diagnosis of a covered critical illness.
How Cancer, Heart & Stroke Coverage Works
You select a benefit amount (e.g., $10,000, $20,000). You pay a monthly premium. If you are diagnosed with a covered illness, you submit the pathology report or medical records, and the company sends you a check.
Understanding The Costs
Premiums are based on your age at issue, gender, tobacco use, and the benefit amount chosen. These policies are generally very affordable, especially if purchased before reaching an advanced age.
The Enrollment Process
We help you select the right benefit amount and complete a simple application with a few medical questions. No medical exam is typically required.
