You have just been diagnosed with a heart attack, stroke or cancer... you're unsure of how the next month, 6 months or 15 years will play out. If you could remove the financial pressures that will likely become part of the equation, do you think it would aid in the recovery for yourself, your family or your business? Would a (tax free) cheque for: $ 100,000? $ 500,000? $1,000,000? be helpful at that time in your life?
What Do These People Have In Common?

Critical Illness - No one believes it will ever happen to them.
Financially, celebrities, professional athletes and the independently wealthy may survive a critical illness. Most people would not. Financial stress slows recovery rates and can even make an illness worse. If you had a heart attack, would your business have a stroke? 38% of foreclosures and 50% of bankruptcies are caused by heart attack, stroke and cancer. Would you rather lose your home...or lose your mortgage?
Critical Illness coverage pays out a lump sum of cash between $10,000 and $2,000,000, usually 30 days after diagnosis of a listed illness or condition.

"But I already have disability insurance."
Critical Illness insurance is not disability insurance. Disability insurance replaces your income. Critical Illness insurance provides you with a lump sum payout, even if you are back at work.
You may have disability insurance with a certain waiting period, i.e.; 90 days, suffer a heart attack, have triple bypass surgery and be back at work in 6 weeks.
