Disability Insurance Critical Illness Long Term Care

Insured Approach to Critical Illness:
There is an Insurance policy designed to pay a lump-sum of cash Tax Free in the event one suffers a Critical Illness. Covering that type of risk is the fastest growing market in North America today.

The incidence of early mortality due to a Critical Illness is significantly reduced because of innovations in medical care technology.

However, the incidence of a disability causing a prolonged lapse in earning ability is significantly increased. Mortgage payments, car payments, increased medical care costs all add up to the potential for financial disaster. A Critical Illness policy makes good business sense.

A Creative Approach to Critical Illness:
When Life Insurance is included with the purchase of a Critical Illness Policy, additional deposits can be made into the policy’s tax sheltered account. If deposits are large enough, substantial cash values are created.

The Income Tax Act not only allows tax sheltering during accumulation, it also specifies that extra cash can be withdrawn TAX FREE in the event of a Critical Illness.

PLUS…
The extra cash can be a valuable “cushion” when income is interrupted, creating Extended Insurance values.
