Critical Illness Insurance
a serious illness
Provides a lump sum benefit for day-to-day living expenses... not covered by insurance
We all like to think we’re invincible, but unfortunately, that isn’t the case. If you or a loved one were suddenly faced with a critical illness, would you be prepared to handle the unforeseen associated expenses?
Even if you are enrolled in a major medical plan, you may want to consider adding AFSPA’s Critical Illness Insurance issued by The Prudential Insurance Company of America (Prudential). Benefits are payable when you are diagnosed with a critical illness for the first time while covered under the plan, and that diagnosis occurs during your lifetime.

This type of plan is NOT considered “minimum essential coverage” under the Affordable Care Act and therefore does NOT satisfy the individual mandate that you have health insurance coverage.
