Lump-sum benefits to cover treatment, living expenses, and bills after a cancer diagnosis

Supplemental Cancer Insurance Designed for Your Peace of Mind

Peterman Insurance Services offers access to standalone or bundled Cancer Insurance—serving as supplemental insurance to your existing health plan—to provide a tax-free cash benefit upon diagnosis. If you have a history of cancer in your family, this coverage is critical. Our nurse-led expertise helps you choose benefit amounts and riders that fit your needs, so you can focus on healing rather than finances.

Customize your policy with return-of-premium, recurrence benefits, or pediatric cancer riders to ensure ongoing protection.

Treatment and Recovery Support

Benefit payments can be used for chemotherapy, radiation, hospital stays, travel to specialists, or home modifications—whatever best supports your recovery.
