CPP | Canada Protection Plan Life Insurance | Non-Medical Simplified Critical Illness

The Non-Medical Simplified Critical Illness plan provides coverage in case you are diagnosed with a specified critical illness. This coverage was designed to provide critical illness insurance to those who would have difficulty qualifying for a traditional critical illness policy. You can renew your policy without any additional medical information for additional 10-year periods. This plan is renewable to age 75. It can be purchased by those 20 to 55.

To qualify for coverage, you only need to answer "no" to some simple health questions. There are no other medical requirements. Benefits are payable to you as a one-time, lump sum payment if you are diagnosed with one of the covered critical illnesses or have undergone a covered procedure. Covered critical illnesses are;

STANDARD BENEFITS

Coverage amounts can range from $10,000 to $100,000.

Return of Premiums on Death
Regardless of your cause of death, if you do not qualify for a claim on your policy, your beneficiary receives a refund of all paid premiums (without interest). This benefit is included at no extra cost.

OPTIONAL FEATURES

Indexing Option
This option will automatically increase your coverage by 5% each year, beginning with the second policy year, to a maximum of 150% of your initial coverage amount. You can cancel the Indexing option at any time with written instructions. Once cancelled, the Indexing feature cannot be restarted.

Disability Waiver
With this benefit, if you become completely and continuously disabled for more than 6 months, your premiums will be paid until you are no longer completely disabled. This benefit ends when you turn 65. This option is available for those 20 to 55.

Return Of Premiums at Age 75
Once you turn 75, if your premiums are up-to-date and you have not made a claim on your policy, all of your base premium payments will be returned to you (without interest).
