Critical Illness

Salad Collective offers a critical illness benefit through UNUM that provides a monetary benefit to help with the out-of-pocket medical and non-medical expenses upon diagnosis of a covered illness.  Critical illness insurance helps you and your family maintain financial security during the recovery period of a serious medical event, such as cancer, heart attack, or stroke.  This plan pays a benefit if the initial diagnosis for a covered illness is while the certificate is in force.  (See certificate for complete details.)
