What is critical illness cover?
Critical Illness Cover is an insurance policy that pays out a tax-free lump sum if you are diagnosed with a specified critical illness covered by the policy. This lump sum payment can be used to cover various expenses, such as:
-
Medical bills and treatment costs
-
Mortgage or rent payments
-
Living expenses during recovery
-
Modifications to your home or vehicle
-
Paying off outstanding debts
By providing financial support during a difficult period, critical illness cover can alleviate the burden and allow you to focus on your recovery without worrying about the financial implications.

While the specific illnesses covered may vary between insurance providers, most critical illness cover policies include protection against conditions such as:
-
Cancer
-
Heart attack
