Cervical Cancer

Hi everyone, we have had five episodes of mental health, diving into how each stage of the insurance journey can have a specific link to mental health. This isn’t just people that already have a mental health condition, but also people that are in a very vulnerable situation that might find that things are hard to cope with. Go back and check them out! In this session I am talking about cervical cancer with Matt Rann and we are discussing the common causes of this cancer, the types of questions that insurers will ask for protection insurance applications and the potential outcomes.The key takeaways:There are close to nine cases of cervical cancer diagnosed each day in the UK.The types of treatment that may have been done to remove the cancer.A case study of a woman getting life insurance after having cervical cancer.Next time Matt is joining me again and we are going to be talking about eating disorders and how they are assessed by insurers.Remember, if you are listening to this as part of your work, you can claim a CPD certificate on our website, thanks to our sponsors Octo Members.If you want to know more about how to arrange protection insurance, take a look at my Protection Insurance in Practice course here.

When you set out to get things like life insurance, critical illness cover or income protection, many people do not think that they are going to hit any snags along the way. But! Insurance is a world of risk and there are times that a persons circumstances will make insurers sit back and have an extra think about offering the insurance. Why?! This podcast is designed to answer that why. Kathryn Knowles is joined by guests to bring a clear and open chat about how insurance works. Kathryn brings her experience as a "quirky" life and the voice of the consumer to the discussion. She does this alongside her work as a specialist adviser, who is known for insuring the uninsurable.
