Do all critical illness policies insure you against cancer?

There used to be some policies which gave you the option as to which illnesses you could insure for. So you could elect to be covered for cancer. But i think i am right in saying that those policies are no longer available.

All general critical illness policies insure the policyholder against cancer - but not all cancers! The precice wording of the cover varies between insurance companies but generally, none life threatening cancers are usually excluded. This is a difficult area and that is why i always advise anyone interested in buying critical illness cover to get advice.
