How would you pay for out-of-pocket expenses associated
with a critical illness?

If you are like many people, you have few options:

  • Spend your savings.
  • Sell your assets.
  • Buy supplemental insurance to protect your family, finances and future.


We believe you need more "CASH" for personal expenses
rather than more INSURANCE for doctors and hospitals.

Your benefits are paid DIRECTLY to YOU ! ! !


Critical Illness Insurance includes these important assurances:

  • Your benefits are paid in addition to any other insurance you carry.
  • You cannot be singled out for a rate increase. Your rates can be increased only if they are increased for all plans of this kind in your state.
  • Your benefits are never reduced.
  • Your policy is guaranteed renewable for life as long as your premiums are paid when due - only you can cancel.

 

 

 

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is Supplemental Insurance?

A: Supplemental insurance is extra or additional insurance that helps you pay for out-of-pocket costs that your major medical insurance doesn't cover. Things such as loss of income, co-pays and co-insurance, travel and lodging, etc. The benefits are paid in cash directly to you so you can use the money however you choose to pay for those unexpected expenses due to illness or injury.

Q: Do I really need supplemental insurance?

Unexpected accidents and illnesses happen. When they do, it can leave you and your family vulnerable to out-of-pocket expenses that major medical insurance does not cover.

With less worry, you can focus on getting well rather than how you will get the money to pay your light bill.
