Why Cancer Insurance?
- 1 in 2 Canadians will develop cancer in their lifetime
- 1 in 4 will die from the disease
This being said about 60% of people will live up to 5 years or more with it. Anyone who has been through or seen someone close to them suffer knows it can be an extreme hardship on the family.
- The average amount of lost wages when diagnosed with cancer leading to missed work and treatments is $17,729.
- Todays latest cancer drugs have an average cost of $65,000 for supplemental treatment!
- With a private health plan in place you may be required to pay 20% of that cost which is $13,000 out of your wallet.
