Critical Illness Insurance provides a lump sum payment when a major health event occurs, such as certain types of cancer, heart attack, or stroke. It serves as a financial safety net if you become ill with any of the diseases specified in the policy. It’s important to note that not all serious illnesses are covered in every policy, so you should refer to your policy terms for more details.
If the critical illness is explicitly mentioned in the policy, the insured individual receives the lump sum payout regardless of their ability to continue working or return to work.
Once the lump sum is received, the claimant has complete freedom in deciding how to use it. Some choose to utilise the money to pay off their mortgage, while others may opt to use funds towards covering medical expenses, or make necessary modifications to their home.
Unfortunately, if you get sick, it can cause financial difficulties, especially if you have a mortgage, children or large credit commitments.
If you are looking into protection advice in Manchester, it is always recommended to speak with a qualified mortgage and protection specialist prior to taking any form of cover.
You are more likely to claim on Critical Illness Cover than you would be with Life Insurance, so this can be more costly. Your protection and mortgage advisor in Manchester will help you find the most favourable deal.
Sometimes a claim may be denied due to the claimant not disclosing certain health conditions at the time of application. This does not apply to conditions you were unaware of, or were not present at the time of application.
The lump sum is paid out providing the condition is mentioned in the policy. This applies even if they have or are able to return to work.
What the claimant does with the lump sum, is entirely up to them. As a trusted mortgage broker in Manchester, we see many use the money to repay their mortgage, pay for medical care or make any developments to their home.

Critical illness cover is an insurance policy that pays you a lump sum if you are diagnosed with a serious illness listed in the policy, such as cancer, heart attack, or stroke. The money can be used to cover medical expenses, replace lost income, or support your family during your recovery.
When you purchase a critical illness policy, you will pay regular premiums to the insurance company. If you are diagnosed with a covered critical illness during the policy term, you will be eligible to receive a lump sum payment from the insurance company.
It’s important to note that critical illness cover policies may have specific terms, exclusions, waiting periods, and payout conditions. It’s essential to carefully review the policy details and consult with the insurance provider to understand how the coverage works specifically.

Critical illness cover and life insurance serve different purposes. Critical illness cover provides a lump sum payout if you’re diagnosed with a severe illness, while life insurance pays out only upon death.
Critical illness cover helps with medical expenses and treatments, replaces income if you’re unable to work, and offers flexibility in choosing coverage amounts and specific illnesses to be covered.
Life insurance primarily focuses on providing a death benefit. Deciding whether to have critical illness cover alongside life insurance depends on your personal circumstances and financial goals.
Consulting with a mortgage and protection advisor in Manchester can help you make an informed choice.
Joint critical illness cover is an option that is there for if you or your partner gets critically ill, providing you with the funds you need. The one drawback for this is that it will pay in full, even if only one of you gets seriously ill.
If you have any of the conditions listed in the policy, you will be paid a lump sum of critical illness coverage. This is done to support you and your family, while income protection is paid in the form of ongoing income. This is useful in the event of being unable to work and has the option to be paid to retirement age.
Unlike critical illness cover, income protection will be guaranteed to pay out if you are unable to work. This will be carried on until you are able to work again or pass away.
