"British Friendly is to be commended for this valuable innovation which will clearly benefit many of its customers. There will be many policy holders who may not be able to obtain CI but wish to provide protection for their children."
PROTECTION REPORTER
Today, British Friendly was announced as the first-ever friendly society to join CIExpert’s Insight Zone following the launch of its new Children’s Critical Illness option for Protect & Breathing Space Income Protection policies.
British Friendly has launched optional Children’s Critical Illness Cover which can be added - for an additional cost - to its new Protect & Breathing Space Income Protection (IP) policies from the 7th June 2024.
This option provides policyholders with a cash lump sum if their child is diagnosed with one of fifty-seven 100% payment conditions and twenty additional 50% payments. Additionally, it includes a 100% payment for admission to a UK waiting list for eight named surgeries as well as optional Fracture Cover for eighteen common fractures.
