A diagnosis is hard enough. The bills shouldn't make it harder.
Medicare covers treatment, but not everything that comes with a serious diagnosis — deductibles, travel, time off, or just keeping the lights on. This coverage pays you a lump-sum cash benefit if you're diagnosed with cancer or a covered critical illness, to use however you need.
A cash cushion for the costs Medicare doesn't cover
Even with strong Medicare coverage, a cancer or critical illness diagnosis — like a heart attack or stroke — often comes with costs that have nothing to do with treatment itself: deductibles across multiple providers, travel to specialists, or lost income during recovery. Cancer & Critical Illness insurance pays you a lump-sum cash benefit upon diagnosis, separate from and in addition to your existing Medicare coverage.

Coverage changes every year — yours should be reviewed just as often. Every fall, during Medicare’s Annual Enrollment Period, I sit down with my clients and make sure their plan still fits.
Questions people ask about Cancer & Critical Illness coverage
Isn't this the same as regular health insurance?
No. This pays a lump-sum cash benefit directly to you upon a covered diagnosis — it doesn't pay providers directly or replace your Medicare coverage. It's meant to cover the costs Medicare doesn't, like travel, deductibles, or time off work.
What counts as a "critical illness"?
It varies by plan, but commonly includes cancer, heart attack, stroke, and similar major diagnoses. I'll walk through the exact covered conditions for any plan you're considering.
Can I use the money for anything, or just medical bills?
Anything. Once you're diagnosed and the claim is approved, the cash is yours to use however you need — medical costs, travel, groceries, or bills.
Do I need a family history of illness to qualify?
No, and most plans have limited or no medical underwriting, making it simple to enroll regardless of family history.
Does it cost anything to meet with you?
No. Consultations are free, with no obligation to enroll. I'm paid by the insurance carriers, the same way every licensed agent is — it doesn't change your premium either way.
