What
is Virgin Cancer Insurance?
Recently launched,
Virgin Cancer Cover can pay out a cash lump sum if the policy holder
is diagnosed with Cancer.
Why do you
need cancer cover?
Figures say
that 1 in 3 people will get some form of cancer in their lifetime.
Apart from the devastating effect that this can have on the person
and their family, it can also have serious financial consequences.
A cash payout
could help with alternative therapy or private medical fees and
paying the bills if you are unable to work. It could also help with
expenses that you may not have thought of such as childcare expenses
during times of medical treatment or home improvement expenses to
help improve your living environment.
What does Virgin
Cancer Cover cover?
Virgin cancer
cover covers hundreds of different cancers, allows you to claim
at earlier stages of cancer than many other companies and comes
with built in cover for life and terminal illnesses too.
How much does
Virgin Cancer Insurance cost?
In common with
other types of life insurance premiums depend on the age and gender
of the person to be covered. Premiums for smokers will be more than
non-smokers.
As a rough guide,
a female non-smoker aged 35 could get 20 years of cover for less
than £20 per month and a 35 year old male smoker could get
cover for just over £31. These figures are based on £100,000
of cover
