How does later life and dementia insurance work?
If you’re diagnosed with dementia, Alzheimer's, Parkinson’s, stroke or frailty, we’ll pay you a lump sum. The payment you’ll receive is based on the severity of your condition. This means you could get more money if your condition gets worse.
What you get with Dementia and FrailCare Cover
Our unique Dementia and FrailCare Cover ensures you stay protected into later life and help to cover rising care costs. Our cover can also help support your independence in later life.
- Any remaining Serious Illness Cover will be automatically converted at the end of the term, just continue to pay premiums
- Up to £100,000 can be taken as Dementia and FrailCare Cover based on the product options selected (subject to changes in cover with Indexation)
- No extra underwriting is needed, and you can cancel at any time
- Payouts are based on the severity of your condition, so you could be entitled to further payouts if your condition worsens
