New Sales OpportunitiesCritical Illness insurance can give clients piece of mind by

providing funds for what’s best for their health and to help

owners to protect the business continuity from one generation/

partner to another in the case of illness.

Life Insurance is a Key Component to Any Financial Plan

But What If You Don’t Die?Tremendous breakthroughs in medical technology have vastly improved survival rates

Life expectancy – People are living longer!

– In 2050, the number of Americans age 65 and older is projected to be 88.5 million,

more than double its projected population of 40.2 million in 2010.1

– For a married couple age 65, there is a 50% chance that at least one spouse will live

to 94, and a 10% chance that one will live to 104.2

Medicine saves people, but quality health care does not come cheap

Let’s look at some eye opening statistics!

Your Client’s Should Be Aware

If they become seriously ill they may have out

of pocket liabilities

The medical networks that your clients can

utilize are getting smaller and smaller

The likelihood of your client having to go to an

out of network facility is increasing everyday

– Out of network = potentially more money out of

their pocket

How are they going to pay for these additional

expenses?
