3 What are you doing to protect yourself? With today s medical advancements, early diagnosis of illness is possible. There s good evidence that treatment of critical illnesses at the early stages can improve your chances of recovery. Yet according to our survey, 61% of Singaporeans are not confident of their financial security if diagnosed with a serious illness such as cancer 6. 53% of Singaporeans don t have any form of critical illness protection 7. This means that they ll be left to grapple with not only the emotional stress of coping with critical illness but also the financial burden that comes with it. So, it s important to ensure that you have the financial freedom to seek the best treatment right from the beginning and not having to worry about the loss of income, mounting debts, other financial priorities such as children s education fees and your own long-term care expenses. That s why having immediate financial payout upon diagnosis of critical illness during the early or intermediate stage could make all the difference for you and your loved ones.
