  • Which option is right for me?
    • A critical illness needs assessment will help you determine how much money you'd need if you or a family member were diagnosed with a serious illness. The proposed solution will be in line with your coverage needs and budget.
  • Am I eligible?
    • If you're between the ages of 18 and 55 for T20 or between the ages of 18 and 65 for T10, you're eligible.
  • How much insurance can I take out?
    • You can take out coverage amounts from $25,000 to $2,000,000. These coverages offer a tax-free benefit after you've survived the diagnosis of 1 of the 10 covered critical illnesses for 30 days.

      You can also top up your fixed coverage amount with additional benefits (e.g. Accidental Fracture, Accidental Dismemberment).
  • Are these coverages for while I'm living?

    • Yes, absolutely! With these coverages, if you survive for 30 days after the diagnosis of 1 of the 10 covered critical illnesses, you'll get a benefit payment.  You can use this benefit to get healthy again without having to worry about your finances. If you choose the Return of Premiums at Death option, all the premiums you've paid will be refunded, as long as you've never received a critical illness benefit.
  • Can I make changes to my policy later on? Will I be penalized?
    • You can adjust your Consumer's CI coverage amount based on your changing coverage needs and budget. Fees apply if you want to increase your coverage amount (subject to certain medical considerations), but there's no penalty for reducing it.
