A financial cushion when a diagnosis changes everything.

Critical illness insurance pays a tax‑free lump sum after a covered diagnosis, helping you protect your income, savings, and plans while you focus on recovery.

Sukhjivan Singh Sidhu helps clients across Ontario choose straightforward coverage that fits real‑world budgets and responsibilities.

What Is Critical Illness Insurance?

It’s a policy that pays you a lump sum after a covered diagnosis. You choose how to use it—treatment, recovery, income replacement, or family support.

It provides flexibility when decisions are time‑sensitive.

Commonly Covered Conditions

Coverage varies by insurer and plan design. Most policies cover 20–30+ major conditions, and some include early‑stage or partial benefits.

Below are examples of conditions often included:

Cancer (life-threatening)

Heart attack

Stroke

Coronary bypass surgery

Kidney failure

Multiple sclerosis

Parkinson’s disease

Major organ transplant

Alzheimer’s disease

Paralysis and more

Many plans also include partial or early benefits for less severe conditions.

Why It Matters

Public healthcare is essential, but many costs still fall on you. A lump‑sum benefit gives you flexibility to focus on recovery without financial strain.

Common out‑of‑pocket costs include:

Lost income during recovery

Cost of medications not covered by public plans

Private nursing or home care

Childcare or eldercare support

Travel for specialized treatment

Mortgage or rent payments

Critical illness coverage helps bridge these gaps so recovery doesn’t create financial stress.

Who Should Consider It?

Critical illness coverage is a strong fit for people who want added financial protection beyond life or disability insurance.

It’s especially valuable for:

Working professionals who rely on their income

Self-employed individuals with no employee benefits

Parents who want to protect their family’s financial future

Homeowners managing a mortgage

Anyone with a family history of serious illness

Applying earlier usually means better rates and easier approval.
