Most people want to work at organizations where they feel valued when they knock a project out of the park or meet a tight deadline. But they also want to know their company cares about them on a personal level. If they donât feel valued, they might start losing interest.

Since many organizations donât offer vision benefits as part of their healthcare package, providing them at your company can give you a leg up in recruiting and retention efforts. Prospective and current team members will see youâre willing to go the extra mile for them, giving you a better sales pitch for promising new talent and potentially making valuable employees more likely to stick around for the long haul.

What is Critical Illness Insurance?
Critical Illness Insurance (CI) provides a financial, lump-sum benefit to employees upon diagnosis of a covered illness. These covered illnesses are typically very severe and likely to render the affected person incapable of working. Because of the financial strain these illnesses can place on individuals and families, critical illness insurance is designed to help ill employees pay the mortgage, seek experimental treatment or handle unexpected medical expenses.
Group critical illness insurance doesnât replace the health insurance; it complements it. While health insurance provides payments to doctors, hospitals, and specialists, critical illness insurance provides money to employee directly, at a time when they need it most.
What does Critical Illness Insurance usually cover?
Group critical illness insurance policies are designed to cover a wide variety of illnesses. These may include:
- Invasive cancer
- Non-invasive cancer
- Heart attack
- Coronary artery bypass surgery
- Angioplasty
- Stroke
- Kidney (renal) failure
- Major Organ Transplant
- Paralysis
- Coma
- And more
Advantages of Critical Illness Insurance?
Many people seek to purchase critical illness insurance through their employer. It is common for employers to offer it as a voluntary benefit.
Companies have been keen to add these plans because they recognize employees are worried about high out-of-pocket expenses with a high-deductible plan. Unlike other health care benefits, workers generally bear the entire cost of critical illness plans. That makes it a money saver for companies, as well as workers.
Critical illness insurance can be used for a variety of things, such as:
- Critical medical services that might otherwise be unavailable.
- Treatments not covered by a traditional policy.
- Daily living expenses, allowing the critically ill to focus their time and energy on getting well instead of working to pay their bills.
- Transportation expenses, such as getting to and from treatment centers, retrofitting vehicles to carry wheelchairs, and installing lifts in homes for those who can no longer navigate staircases.
- Those in need of a restful place to recover can use the funds to take a vacation.
Simply put, critical illness insurance can alleviate financial worry in the event an individual becomes too sick to work.
How much does the Critical Illness Insurance cost?
Insurers will want to know the below information for everyone the policy will cover before offering Critical Illness quotes:
- Dates of birth
The cost of Critical Illness Cover rises as we get older because weâre more susceptible to illness or injury. - Gender of employees
Men and women are statistically more likely to suffer from certain illnesses and so theyâre priced differently. - Occupations
Riskier occupations (e.g. manual work over desk work) tend to attract a higher premium. - Salaries
Company Critical Illness Insurance payouts are calculated as a multiple of employeesâ salaries. This means the insurer will need the salaries of everyone youâre looking to cover and the multiple you want to offer them. - Whether everyone is âactively at workâ
An individual whoâs on long-term sickness leave at the time of the quote may attract a higher premium. Alternatively, the insurer may exclude them from cover depending on the nature of their illness.
A group critical illness insurance policy is a benefit your employees may want to take advantage of if itâs offered. We can help you in navigating through multiple option and deciding a suitable plan for your employees.
