    Critical illness is a broad form of cancer insurance. A good major medical plan will cover the lions share of your medical bills but there are always deductibles, copay's and coinsurance left over to be paid out of your pocket.

    A good critical illness insurance plan can help you pay these bills and a lot more.

    Critical Illness Insurance is important if you have a high risk of getting a serous illness due to having it run in your family, and if you do not have savings to carry you through the time of treatment and recovery. Receiving a lump sum of money via a critical illness policy can make a big difference in your recovery as you have the extra funds to spend on time to heal, try new treatments, etc.
