Critical illness insurance

Financial support for life's critical moments

Even with major medical coverage, employees facing a critical event can still be on their own when it comes to out-of-pocket costs. These can include deductibles, copays and coinsurance, plus other costs from changes in daily activities like childcare and transportation.

Symetra's critical illness insurance is designed to provide financial support to people of all ages, in all stages of life.

Our benefits go beyond standard critical illness coverage and can be valuable for employees whether they're just entering the workforce, starting a family, or planning for retirement.
