Carcinoma in Situ and CI = Hard to Sell

I think most people looking at a critical illness policy are thinking of cancer but it's hard to get excited about a policy that only pays 25% if the cancer hasn't spread. Am I missing something? It seems like a rip to me.:skeptical: It's almost like a pseudo-LI policy, as a cancer that has spread doesn't bode well for your longevity. The other conditions like stroke, dementia, heart attack are really limited by the protection to age 64.

Most, if not all, CI policies have a reduced amount for carcinoma in situ. If you found one that paid full face, or even 50%, you can bet it would be quite expensive and then you would have something new to complain about.

"I can't sell this because they are not competitive".

If you don't like CI plans, don't offer them.
