Life Insurance can give you peace of mind

What is Life Insurance?

Life insurance is a contract, with an insurer, that promises a set amount of money will be given to your beneficiary and/or estate upon your death. Your benefit amount depends upon many factors including the policy you choose, your age, gender and health, and the amount of premium you pay. Your Advisor will discuss these details with you to make sure that you get the policy that is right for you, whether with fixed coverage and specific terms, or with greater flexibility. If your financial situation changes, you can adjust your policy accordingly with the help of your Advisor.

Why Do You Need It?

Life insurance can give you the peace of mind to know that, if something should happen to you, your loved ones won't be left with a legacy of debt, final taxes, or other financial worries. Over time, events in your life might cause you to re-evaluate your financial goals and consider the protection life insurance can provide. Perhaps you're getting married, buying a home, having children, or planning for your retirement. With an appropriate plan, life insurance can help you meet your goals in life and protect your family when you no longer can.

Certain business situations call for life insurance. If you're an entrepreneur or just starting a business, you'll need to protect your enterprise and your partners. A uniquely tailored insurance solution can also provide the money necessary to enable your fellow shareholders or partners to buy you out when you're ready to retire.

Critical Illness Insurance

Critical Illness insurance is a relatively new form of protection that provides money while you are still alive. It has tremendous flexibility if you become critically ill because there are no requirements for how you spend the money that you receive. You don't have to get approval for expenditures, you don't have to provide any receipts, you don't even have to spend the money on medical expenses.

Critical Illness insurance provides you with a lump-sum payment to be used however you see fit. You can try alternative therapies, be treated outside of the country, hire someone to take care of you, hire a nanny to take care of your children, you choose how to spend your money.

Critical Illness insurance covers specific illnesses and provides a way of protecting yourself against the high cost of rebuilding your lifestyle following a critical illness. You are eligible for your cash payment usually just 30 days after diagnosis and with no requirement on how you spend the money.

Most policies cover the following illnesses:

• Heart Attack
• Loss of Limbs
• Major Organ Transplant
• Stroke
• Blindness
• Coma
• Multiple Sclerosis
• Deafness
• Severe Burns
• Parkinson's Disease
• Cancer
• Paralysis
• Loss of Speech
• Kidney Failure
• Heart Bypass Surgery
• Motor Neuron Disease (ALS)
• Alzheimer's Disease
• Occupational HIV
    

You can also customize your Critical Illness Insurance policy. We can help you determine which options are best for you.

What's the chance I'll ever need Critical Illness Insurance?

Did you know that you have a greater chance of getting a critical illness, than dying before you're 75? That probably seems scary. The good news is that most people who are diagnosed with a critical illness before age 75 recover and get on with life. In fact, statistics* show that:

• More than 90% of people who have their first heart attack recover
• 75% of people who have a stroke survive the initial incident
• While women have a 1 in 9.5 chance of developing breast cancer, they only have a 1 in 26 chance of dying from it and men have a 1 in 9 chance of developing prostate cancer, and only a 1 in 27.5 chance of dying from it.
    

If you are diagnosed with a critical illness, you, just like all of us, want to focus on your recovery. Treating an illness often includes unexpected costs, from medicine the government does not cover to taking a break from your treatment. All these extras cost money, money that a Critical Illness Insurance policy can provide.

Health and Dental Benefits

What is Health Insurance?

Simply put, health insurance is protection against medical costs. A health insurance policy is a contract between an insurer and an individual or group, in which the insurer agrees to provide specified health insurance at an agreed-upon price (the premium). Depending on your policy, your premium may be payable either in a lump sum or in installments. Health insurance usually provides either direct payment or reimbursement for expenses associated with illnesses and injuries. The cost and range of protection provided by your health insurance will depend on your insurance provider and the policy you purchase. If your employer does not offer a health insurance plan, you may wish to purchase health insurance on your own.

Why do you need it?

Let's face it, health insurance is a necessity in today's world. The costs of medical care and treatment have soared to new heights in recent years and are expected to rise even further in the years to come. Think for a moment about the enormous medical costs you would incur if you suffered a major injury tomorrow or were suddenly stricken with a life-threatening illness. Uninsured people live with such risk every day of their lives; health insurance can shield you from that risk. Even if you're healthy today and have never had any major problems in the past, you simply can't predict the future. In addition to medical emergencies, routine conditions requiring visits to a physician or dentist happen all the time (e.g., pregnancy, viruses that seem to hang on forever, moles that don't look quite right, preventative dental care and surgery). This is especially true if you have children. Ear infections, rashes, and high fevers are commonplace with infants and children. While numerous trips to the doctor are covered by Provincial Insurance the resulting medications or treatments can be expensive without health insurance.
