This coverage is more than health insurance; it goes beyond to help provide your family with financial support when you're diagnosed, confined to the hospital, undergoing treatment or receiving hospice care.
The Cancer Insurance Plan provides $5,000 upon diagnosis of cancer, and $200 per day for up to a year if you're confined to the hospital. This money can be used however your family needs and with our affordable rates, it's a small price to pay for your family's well-being.
