How it works
The Critical Illness plan pay you a lump-sum cash benefits for a wide range of covered critical illness diagnoses—including a heart attack, stroke, end-stage renal failure and more. A new covered diagnosis must occur on or after your plan's effective date.
Use the money to help pay medical bills or everyday living expenses like your mortgage or car payment. The choice is yours. You can also sign-up for direct deposit to get your benefits faster.
