Critical Illness Cover for People with Terminal Illness Diagnoses

Getting critical illness cover with a history of terminal illness is often possible, but it is almost always mainstream UK insurers that offer the most flexible underwriting for your situation — not direct-to-consumer comparison sites. Factors that matter include the date of diagnosis, the treatment completed, the time since last recurrence or monitoring, and your consultant's current prognosis.

Our FCA-authorised advisers know which insurers are most accommodating for terminal illness, and can often arrange cover where a comparison website has returned a blanket decline. Where full cover is not immediately available we can arrange deferred or exclusion-based cover so you still have some protection in place now, with a review point in the future.

We never share your medical information outside the application. Insurers use the NHS digital Access to Medical Reports Act framework to request GP information only with your explicit consent, and you will always see any report before it is sent.
