Critical Illness Cover & TPD – HSBC will not be able to offer cover

Life Cover can potentially available to the following specific diagnoses only:

  • Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) or rodent ulcer
  • Bowen’s disease.

Any other cancer diagnosis would result in us not being able to offer cover.

The outcome will then depend on their date of diagnosis, treatment and whether discharged from review or further investigations.

This is a general guide and is not a guarantee of acceptance.
