Am I eligible to take out critical illness cover?

To add critical illness cover to your life insurance policy, you must be a UK resident aged 18 to 67. The policy must end before your 70th birthday. You can apply for a policy that covers just you, or you plus another person. If two people are covered by the policy, it will only pay out once. This is because cover ends once a valid claim has been made and the full cash sum has been paid.
