The cost of a Specified Serious Illness Protection policy depends on various factors, including the level of cover you choose, your age, health status, and whether you are a smoker. Higher lump sums typically result in higher monthly premiums. A financial advisor at Hennelly Finance can help you determine the right level of cover for your needs and budget.
The best way to determine the most suitable cover for you is to consult with a financial advisor who can assess your individual needs and recommend a policy that provides the appropriate level of protection.
The coverage for specific conditions depends on the terms of your policy. Many policies cover a broad range of illnesses, including major conditions like multiple sclerosis (MS), heart attacks, and cancer. It’s important to review the list of covered illnesses in your policy and discuss any concerns with your financial advisor.
Specified Illness Cover is not required to obtain a mortgage, but it can be a valuable addition to your financial protection strategy. Adding this cover to your mortgage protection policy can ensure that you are financially protected in case of a serious illness, providing additional peace of mind.
