- What?
Critical Illness, although a stand-alone policy, is usually an add on to a life cover that pays out a sum of money upon diagnosis of a defined* critical illness.
- Why?
Most people take a policy out in addition to the life cover for a mortgage, to cover incapacitation, make sure the family is financially stable and make sure treatment is covered too.
- Who
Just about anybody between the ages of 18-70 can take out a Critical Illness Cover.
- When?
Like Life Assurance, the younger you are, the cheaper the policy, as the older you are the more likely you are to develop a Critical Illness, therefore the higher likelihood of a claim being made. Other factors affecting price include current health, smoking status, BMI, and even your job.

*Each provider has their own definitions of what classes as a critical illness. For more information, speak to an adviser.
Critical illness plans may not cover all definitions of a critical illness. The definitions vary between providers and will be described in the key features and policy document if you go ahead with a plan.
