Surviving a life threatening illness often imposes more of a financial strain of a family than death. The recovery from a life threatening illness may take months, even years... cutting into savings and severely affecting lifestyle and retirement plans. The Lifestyle Adjustment Plan protects against the high cost of rebuilding a lifestyle following a critical illness.
