Important information

This is a limited benefit policy for specified disease (cancer). It is supplemental, specified-disease indemnity insurance, not major medical coverage, and does not replace comprehensive health insurance. Policies typically include a waiting period (for example, 30 days after the effective date) before a diagnosis is covered, pre-existing condition limitations, and specific exclusions or reduced benefits (such as certain non-melanoma skin cancers or carcinoma in situ). See the policy for full details.

Important: Cancer insurance is a limited-benefit, specified-disease supplemental policy. It is not major medical insurance and does not replace health insurance or Medicare. Benefits, waiting periods, limitations, exclusions and availability vary by carrier and state.

Why there's no price chart here

Each carrier files its own rates by state, and they change. A generic "average" is usually wrong for you. A quote from Matt is free and takes a few minutes.

What sets your premium

Sizing a benefit

Think about your own exposure: your health plan's deductible and out-of-pocket maximum, plus travel, time off work and household costs during treatment. Matt can show two or three benefit levels side by side so you can pick what fits your budget.

Questions about this topic

Why don't you list prices?

Rates vary by carrier, age, state, benefit and tobacco use, and they change. Matt quotes plans actually available where you live instead.

Is it cheaper to buy younger?

Generally premiums are lower at younger ages, and some plans keep pricing tied to your age at issue. Check how the plan you're considering is rated.

Can I get it if I've had cancer before?

Often a prior diagnosis affects eligibility or is excluded. Each carrier's application decides. Matt can check options.
