Critical illness cover

Paying for childcare, adapting a home to new ways of living, settling a mortgage – all things for your clients to consider when planning their financial future.

If they lost their main source of income, covering the bills might not be so easy. Your clients already insure their home, their car and maybe even the family pet, so providing for loved ones should be equally as important.

Put simply, critical illness cover is protection for their family in the event of them falling seriously ill or dying. It provides a lump sum payment if the person covered meets the criteria of one of the conditions listed in their policy, or if they pass away.

Value from day one

The award-winning on-demand health and wellbeing service Smart Health, valued by customers at £43 per month*, is included at no additional cost for every one of our critical illness policyholders. It’s also available to partners and children up to age 21, so it really is there for the whole family.

Better outcomes

Critical illness cover isn’t just about a long list of complicated medical terms (or conditions as they’re sometimes called) – it’s so much more. That’s why our cover focuses on the impact, rather than the cause. We’ve combined over 20 conditions into four groups – making it fairer when it comes to claim.

Smart Health

Giving your clients value from day one with access to health and wellbeing advice 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. It's unlimited and available to your clients, their partner/spouse and children (up to age 21), even if the children's cover option isn't chosen – all at no extra cost.

And the support doesn't stop there. We've got your clients’ backs after claim too – they can still use the experts at Smart Health for a second medical opinion for three years to manage the after-effects of treatment.

Smart Health is a non-contractual benefit that could be changed or withdrawn in the future.
