The American Cancer Society estimates that one in two men and one in three women will get cancer in their lifetime.¹ But, the promising news is that more and more people are winning the battle against this deadly disease.

Battling cancer can be a long, difficult journey, not only for cancer patients but their families as well. For so many people battling this disease, their concerns are not only with their treatment but also with the cost associated with that treatment.

• The overall cost of cancer in 2008 was $228.1 billion, with $134.9 billion of that being indirect costs and only $93.2 billion in direct costs (medical expense).¹
• 41% of all cancer costs are direct medical costs, while the remaining 59% of costs are indirect.¹
• 50% of all bankruptcy filings were partly the result of medical expenses.²

As treatments become more sophisticated, we also see a steady rise in the cost of such treatments. This is why so many of our Customers have found value in our Cancer Insurance Plans.
