Critical Illness Protection Plan

Protect your finances and your family against the impact of a critical illness. Designed to help provide a financial cushion if you become seriously ill, Critical illness insurance helps you cover unforeseen costs and daily living expenses. 

Plan-at-a-glance

  • Use the benefit payment in any way you choose such as helping pay your mortgage or rent or other out-of-pocket expenses.
  • Benefits are not affected by other insurance benefits.
  • Lump sum payment is paid directly to you after your diagnosis for a covered critical illness.
  • Coverage is portable so, if you change jobs, you can take the plan with you.
  • If you have a UnitedHealthcare medical plan, Benefit Assist® keeps an eye out for medical claims that may qualify you for a supplemental health benefit payout. This helps make it easier for you to get the benefits you’re eligible for.
