Cancer Care
In the United States, cancer is the second leading cause of death, behind heart disease. Nearly 78% of all cancers are diagnosed in persons 55+ years of age. In fact, in 2012, over 1.6 million people were diagnosed, for the first time, with cancer. Cancer accounts for nearly one quarter of the deaths in the US, exceeded only by heart disease. A cancer care insurance policy is an affordable way to provide peace of mind by alleviating the financial burden that cancer can bring by paying for both medical and non-medical expenses (travel, lodging and household help), usually with a check sent directly to you and not medical providers.
