    Whether the critical illness insurance policy will cover thyroid cancer depends on the wording of the policy. But criticall illness insurance certainly can and does pay for thyroid cancer in some situations. Policies will list the type and stage of cancers excluded, which are normally low risk cancers  that can be treated with non-aggressive treatment plans. Thyroid cancer is considered serious enough to be covered by at least some critical illness policies.

    Critical illness insurance pays for thyroid cancer if the cancer is serious. E.g. Critical illness insurance does not pay for cancer that is in situ, but will pay if the cancer is in a more advanced stage. That being said, you need to consult the policy to see their guidelines for thyroid cancer. It may have be to a certain size to be covered. But thyroid cancer is covered in many situations.

    Many Critical Illness Policies consists of Heart Attack, Stroke, Renal Failure, and Cancer. Some have separate coverages for Cancer. Cancer will be in that within that category as a Critical Illness, but, as a separate policy. It is best to have that added into the policy because there is a different lump sum payment for the treatment of the disease. Depending on the company which will have different payment plans. For critical illness is for the extreme purpose of financial stability, and the cost for the treatment of the disease.
