What it is

A financial cushion for life’s hardest moments.

A heart attack, stroke, or other major illness can hit without warning — and the bills pile up fast. Critical illness insurance pays a lump-sum cash benefit on a covered diagnosis, so you can focus on recovery instead of finances.

The money is yours to use however you need: treatment, time off work, or everyday expenses.

Who it’s for

Working adults who want a cash safety net if a major health event interrupts their income.
