Critical Illness Insurance for Women

When it comes to the chances of becoming ill, there is no qualitative difference between men and women. The main benefits of taking out a critical illness are:

• You can insure that any major loss of income that comes with your illness brings about through inability to work
• You can insure that you are still able to honour mortgage payments
• Being able to insure that you can undergo the appropriate level of treatment

While thinking about taking out a policy of critical illness insurance for women, there are a number of important points to consider: 

• What, if any age restrictions apply to the policy? Most will not offer critical illness insurance to those over 70 years old.
• What exclusions are contained within each policy? Most will exclude those illnesses caused by self inflicted wounds, drug abuse or dangerous hobbies like mountaineering.
• The amount of cover will differ, as well the premium calculations based on the severity, length and treatment required.
• Is the critical illness insurance offered as an individual policy or as part of a life insurance or medical illness policy?
