Tax-Free Protection Against Serious Illness

Receive a tax-free lump sum if diagnosed with a critical illness with comprehensive cover designed to meet your specific needs.

Replace Missing Employee Benefits

Traditional employees receive sick pay and death in service benefits you no longer have as a contractor. Critical illness cover fills this gap, providing a tax-free lump sum when diagnosed with specified serious conditions, protecting your finances when you need support most.

Work with Specialist Advisers

Getting advice from a specialist critical illness adviser ensures you choose cover that genuinely protects you when you need it most. Specialist advisers understand the differences between providers, the specific medical definitions that determine whether a claim is paid, and how to tailor the policy to your personal risks and circumstances.

Compare Coverage Comprehensively

Costs vary significantly between providers, but price alone should not drive your decision. We compare the medical conditions covered, claim definitions, and payment terms across leading UK insurers, ensuring you receive the most suitable and cost-effective protection for your specific situation.
