Company's tools now allow visitors to easily delve into these specialized policies

London, UK -- (SBWire) -- 07/14/2014 --Insurance shopping comparison providers Insurance Hero have announced the inclusion of cancer-specialized life and critical-illness policies into their informational offerings. Policies of this sort provide extra financial security and peace of mind for holders and beneficiaries when cancer strikes and are increasingly popular among residents of the United Kingdom. The policy-comparison tools provided by Insurance Hero can now help those looking for such coverage discover the most economical and cost-efficient policies of this type in the same way that they have helped countless others secure similarly valuable policies of other sorts.

"We've made a name for ourselves through our provision of powerful insurance shopping tools," company representative Simon Jones said, "and now that we have added a wide variety of cancer-specific coverage to our listings, even more of our visitors can benefit from our services." Breast and prostate cancer are the two most-commonly diagnosed diseases of this type for women and men, respectively. Those diagnosed with either illness typically find it hard to acquire new insurance of any sort thereafter, as insurers normally judge them to present overly large financial risks. Insurance Hero's guide to obtaining cancer life insurance, available at http://www.insurancehero.org.uk/types/cancer-life-insurance.html, can help people up to the age of 75 plan ahead for this eventuality. It also provides some strategies for acquiring this kind of insurance for those who have already been diagnosed.

Despite having existing coverage, many of those who develop cancer end up with large medical bills relating to their treatment. Making use of supplemental critical illness insurance, as discussed at http://www.insurancehero.org.uk/types/using-critical-illness-cover-to-supplement-life-insurance.html, can help to ensure that even the most serious illnesses will not unnecessarily disrupt a family's financial security. In addition, it is often possible for those already suffering from illnesses which negatively affect their life expectancy to provide bettered financial prospects for their eventual survivors by taking out new life insurance policies, as discussed on Insurance Hero's website at http://www.insurancehero.org.uk/types/life-insurance-for-the-health-impaired.html.

"With so many offerings out there, arranging for the necessary insurance can seem like a difficult task," Jones concluded, "but that wealth of options becomes a real asset when our comparison tools are used to dig through it quickly and effectively." Insurance Hero's services return real-time results from the industry's widest selection of insurance underwriters. The quotes and comparison matrices the company offer to visitors allow them to easily make informed choices with the benefit of more information than they would be able to assemble on their own. The company's expansion of their analytical services to cancer-oriented insurance policies gives them even greater reach and utility than previously and helps to secure their position as leaders in the field.
