Critical illness insurance is a type of health insurance that pays your medical bills in the event of an accident that causes you to be hospitalized. It also covers your family if you are unable to work due to an injury or illness, and it can cover lost wages if your employer has covered some or all of your salary while you're out of work.

There are two types of critical illness insurance: short-term and long-term. Short-term coverage pays for the first 30 days in a hospital, while long-term coverage extends past that initial period and covers everything from 6 months up to 3 years (or longer).

Critical illness insurance is different from other types of health insurance because it focuses solely on paying for medical bills. it doesn't have any other benefits like prescription drug coverage or mental health benefits. So it's less expensive than traditional health plans, but it does offer more protection for those who need it most.

This is my first time learning about critical illness insurance because all that I have always known is health insurance in general but I never know that there is a kind of critical illness insurance under health insurance.

I think critical illness insurance is good and
I will advise everyone to have it because there are sometimes when your health insurance may not be able to cover all the bills that you're supposed to pay.
