Cancer plans
Cancer plans that can pay you after a covered diagnosis
A cancer plan pays benefits directly to you after a covered diagnosis or treatment. What it pays depends on the covered event, the plan’s exclusions and limits, and the policy issued. You can use the money for anything, from deductibles to travel for treatment to bills at home.
