| Not a big fan of this sort of thing. I would look for a critical illness insurance policy. It pays for cancer, heart attacks, strokes, and other serious illnesses. |

Aflac also offers a more expensive cancer policy that reimburses you all of your premiums if you don't get cancer. So you can look at it as a savings account in either case.

| Cancer treatment often takes many months before its completion and includes a whole lot of method which are very expensive. So, medical insurance could be vital. Alfac insurance's policy might vary from state to state. So go through the policy terms carefully. It generally covers the cost of primary treatment and also the subsequent complications. However, if cancer is pre-diagonised before the purchase of the insurance policy, Alfac insurance does not provide any coverage. |

Keep in mind that critical illness policies normally pay a lump sum upon the diagnosis of a critical illness and then the policy is cancelled and done with.
Specified Illness, or Dread Disease contracts are what companies like Aflac offers. They pay for diagnosis and ongoing treatments for the specified illness instead of a lump sum.
I've always favored critical illness if you have good medical expense coverage. You can use the lump sum benefit any way you want, and I've seen plenty of contracts that offer significant levels of coverage.

If you have a cancer policy that you have not "updated," don't be fooled into thinking that you have taken the steps you need for good coverage. My father, who has had a cancer policy with AFLAC for 35 years, has just been diagnosed with cancer. The TOTAL amount they are willing to offer as assistance will not pay even 50% of one month's copay for his meds! He'd have come out better to stuff that money in his sock drawer. What a shame and what a sham!

Just wanted to chime in. My mom was recently diagnosed with stage 1 breast cancer and she's doing just fine. She has to get chemo every month for 6 months. Someone at her work advised her to get the Aflac cancer policy beforehand. She can still work, she is on a health insurance plan, so the huge check in the mail that comes every month from Aflac puts us in a -very- good spot, whereas we would have been struggling quite a bit without it.
If it weren't for my mom's employer telling her to get this policy we would be in a world of hurt. But right now we're really relieved and life is great. Thanks to AFLAC! WOO!

I have had the policy for 15 yrs. My husband was diagnosed with thyroid cancer 4 years ago. We have never had any hastle with getting the money that is stated in our policy...first time diagnoses, surgery, anesthesiolist, room, travel...we got a check for it all. I also send in the proof of pap or mammogram and my husbands PSA every year and we get money for those. No complaints from me.

A friend of mine just had skin cancer and AFLAC sent him 1800 dollars and he may get more with travel and lodging expenses. I am submitting some claims myself i will see if they go good soon but i can say the reps are very helpful and really try to help you out.

I have had an Aflac Cancer policy that we took out years ago. In 2007, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I get screened every six months and take Tamoxifen, which I have to take for five years, I am three and a half years into to it. Does anyone know if Aflac pays for screenings or the prescription Tamoxifen. I hate reading fine print, LOL. Thanks
