Specified disease insurance
Financial relief when it's needed most
A cancer diagnosis, heart attack or other life-altering condition usually means unknown and unexpected costs. Specified disease insurance helps lessen the impact by paying a lump-sum benefit so insureds can concentrate on their recovery, rather than their finances.
Product highlights
Benefit amounts available in $1,000 increments, up to $50,0001.
Guaranteed-issue coverage available2.
Health screening benefit available.
Skin cancer benefit available per person, per calendar year.
How it works
The first time an insured is diagnosed with a covered condition after the coverage is in effect, they'll receive a one-time, lump-sum benefit equal to their plan's benefit amount for that condition, and they can spend this benefit however they choose.
Core coverage includes:
Invasive cancer
Non-invasive cancer (in situ)
Non-melanoma skin cancer
Stroke
Heart attack (myocardial infarction)
Major organ failure (including failure of the heart, lung, both kidneys, pancreas or bone marrow)
Enhanced core coverage includes the above conditions, plus:
Alzheimer's disease
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
Diabetes mellitus (Type I and Type II)
