LIC’s Cancer Cover is a non-linked, non-participating, regular premium health insurance plan designed to offer financial protection if the Life Assured is diagnosed with specified early and/or major stage cancer during the policy term.
This policy can be obtained through licensed agents, corporate agents, brokers, insurance marketing firms, and can also be purchased directly online via the website www.licindia.in.
The plan provides two benefit options, allowing you to choose the desired Sum Insured at the beginning of the policy.
LIC’s Cancer Cover Benefits
Early Stage Cancer
Benefits for the first diagnosis of specified Early Stage Cancers include:
(a) Lump sum benefit: 25% of the Applicable Sum Insured is paid.
(b) Premium Waiver Benefit: Premiums for the next three policy years or the remaining policy term (whichever is shorter) are waived from the policy anniversary coinciding with or following the diagnosis date.
Major Stage Cancer
(a) Lump Sum: 100% of the Applicable Sum Insured, minus prior Early Stage Cancer claims, is paid.
(b) Income Benefit: An additional 1% of the Applicable Sum Insured is paid each month for ten years after the lump sum, even if the Life Assured doesn’t survive this period. If the Life Assured passes away while receiving this benefit, any remaining payouts go to the nominee.
(c) Premium Waiver: All future premiums are waived from the next policy anniversary, except for the specified Income Benefit, which continues as described.
