Critical Illness Insurance pays out a lump sum if you are diagnosed with one of the conditions on the policy such as Cancer, Heart Attack or Stroke. Sometimes Insurers receive criticism for declining claims when someone is very ill but with an illness not covered on their policy but most major providers actually pay out over 90% of claims.
If claims are denied it can also be because the claimant did not disclose an underlying medical condition they have when they took the policy out.
In the event of a claim the lump sum is paid out irrespective of whether the claimant returns to work or not, the key thing is whether the illness they had matched the definition on their policy.
The claimant can use the lump sum they receive for any purpose they wish. Be this to repay their mortgage, pay for medical care or make modifications to their home.
Different insurers cover different illnesses on their policies and it’s wise to take advice prior to selecting a policy. This will ensure that you end up with one that is suitable for your needs. Critical Illness Insurance is much more expensive than life cover because the chances of you making a claim are far higher.
Your chances of surviving the types of conditions covered are far higher than they were 30 years ago. However, if you are unfortunate enough to contract one of them then there are often financial consequences. Hence the popularity of the cover, especially for applicants who have mortgages or children to think about.
You are more likely to claim on Critical Illness Cover than you would be with Life Insurance, so this can be more costly. Your protection and mortgage advisor in Nottingham will help you find the most favourable deal.
It’s very important to us that all of our customers are given an equal opportunity to take insurance our through ourselves. We wouldn’t be doing our job right if we didn’t mention it!

We’ll then recommend which products, including critical illness and income protection that meet your needs. If required, we’ll then tailor the plan to match your available monthly budget.
What the claimant does with the lump sum, is entirely up to them. As a trusted mortgage broker in Nottingham, we see many use the money to repay their mortgage, pay for medical care or make any developments to their home.
For insurance business we offer products from a range of insurers.

We’ve had a really positive experience with Nottinghammoneyman throughout our mortgage process as first-time buyers. Our mortgage advisors Warren and Chris were highly knowledgeable and took us through everything step by step, which really helped us feel less overwhelmed at what can be a quite complex process. The admin side has also been very efficient. Any questions we had were answered quickly and professionally, and we always felt supported whenever we needed clarification. Overall, a very good service and we’d happily recommend Nottinghammoneyman to other first-time buyers or anyone looking for mortgage advice and support. We’ll also likely use them again in the future for remortgaging for peace of mind. Thank you, Nottinghammoneyman!

We had such a great experience with Chris Thompson and his team! They first helped us when we were buying our first home, and honestly, as first time buyers, we had so many questions. They were incredibly patient and made sure we understood everything clearly. The advice they gave us was spot on and really helped us feel confident throughout the whole process. We recently remortgaged with Chris and his team and once again, they were excellent. They provided clear, accurate information and guided us through every step just like they did the first time. We’re really grateful for all their support, both with our first mortgage and the remortgage. I’d definitely recommend anyone looking to buy their first home or remortgage. They really know their stuff and genuinely care about helping their clients!
