I believe that Child Critical Illness coverage is extremely important and something every child should have. I say this with conviction and as a father, who purchased policies for both my children. Child CI, is an affordable way of providing much needed financial support in the event one of our children become critically ill. I’m a strong advocate for this coverage and hopefully after you read this blog, you will feel as passionate about it as I do.
The Benefits
-Coverage amounts between $10,000 to $1,000,000 per child
-Application process is quick and easy

–Refund of premiums optional rider. You will receive a FULL 100% refund of premiums if the policy is cancelled any time after the 20th year
