Critical Illness Insurance

A critical illness can come in many forms, leaving employees unable to work and provide for themselves and their families. So, when employees fall ill with a critical illness, they deserve help protecting their finances and their loved ones’ futures. 

A supplement to major medical insurance, Transamerica’s critical illness insurance is a flexible option that pays a lump-sum benefit that can be used to offset out-of-pocket costs not covered by major medical. You can also add a number of additional benefit options to provide additional protection. 

• No lifetime benefit maximum
• No waiting period
• Benefits paid directly to the employee
• Easy payroll-deducted premiums
• Family options available
• Portable if the employee leaves the company
• Guaranteed issue available
