Do You Need Cancer Insurance?

Your average chemotherapy session lasts around 6 weeks! I hear it all the time, but Medicare covers cancer, or I have good group insurance, I don’t need a cancer insurance policy! In a 2016 American Medical Association study they found that 60% of cancer costs to be non-medical cost. The non-medical costs can rack up as fast as the treatment costs, if you have to travel for treatment you’ll see costs for hotel or Air BnB stays, dining out, time off work for your caregiver, and your everyday bills still need to be paid. I recommend a Cancer Insurance policy to all of my clients for those reasons! You want to focus on getting better, not stressing about finances. Most Cancer policies are a lump sum payment for your benefit, but not every policy functions the same. Contact us today to learn about your options.
