What is Critical Illness cover? The aim of Critical illness cover is to ensure that your mortgage is repaid or you have money for your own reasons should you suffer a critical illness such as a heart attack, cancer, stroke, or other serious illness. Upon a successful claim you will
receive a tax free lump sum, a set period after the point of diagnosis, usually 28-30 days.

How would you repay your mortgage? Ask yourself - how would you repay your mortgage, and maintain your standard of living if you were diagnosed with a Critical Illness?
It is important to remember that not all Critical Illness becomes terminal illness, and the majority of people survive. How would you pay for private medical treatment or adjustments to your home, such as a stair life or door frames widening if they were
needed?
All these questions need serious thought and consideration when reviewing your financial situation, particularly if you have young children or dependents.
An example of the benefits of Critical Illness insurance could be that perhaps you suffer a heart attack, and as a result you are admitted to hospital where you stay to recuperate for a couple of weeks, all this puts a huge strain on your finances and
results in high levels of stress and worry.
Once you come out of hospital it is very unlikely that you will be able to return to work immediately, so the likelihood is you would take sick leave for a specified time until advised to return to work.
