When purchasing cover through an independent financial adviser, HSBC Life also offers an optional ‘Waiver of Premium’ where you won’t have to pay policy premiums if you are unable to work due to an accident, sickness, or you can’t carry out certain activities. This can be taken at an additional cost. 

Critical Illness Cover can pay you a lump sum if you suffer a stroke or heart attack or are diagnosed with a specified illness. You could use this money to cover your mortgage and rehabilitation costs.  

It could be particularly important if you have family who rely on your salary. Critical Illness Plus gives you the maximum level of protection offered by HSBC Life. Some of the most common conditions covered by our critical illness cover are: 

• cancer – excluding less advanced cases 

• heart attack 

• stroke 

• heart bypass 

• multiple sclerosis
