OrangeGenie Critical Illness Protection
The financial consequences to a contractor when a possible life threatening illness is diagnosed can be disastrous. Advances in medical treatment over recent years mean that many of these so called critical illnesses, for example, heart attacks, strokes or cancer can be successfully treated. However, many people find that they cannot return to high pressure, stressful roles they were previously in and have to change their lifestyle accordingly.
For a relatively small monthly sum you can ensure that a lump sum is paid to you as soon as the condition is diagnosed. This will allow you to convalesce properly or make changes to your home to help you live more comfortably.
In line with Income Protection (which would stop as soon as you return to work) Critical Illness cover gives you the peace of mind to know that if you are one of the many unlucky ones, you and your family are in good financial health.
