Episode 14 – Hepatitis

Hi everyone, we have Matt Rann back with us and we are talking about hepatitis and protection insurance. Hepatitis affects the liver and this can lead to some difficulty in arranging protection insurance, especially critical illness cover and income protection.

The key takeaways:

  • There are a lot of types of hepatitis: A, B, C, D, E, alcoholic and autoimmune
  • Hepatitis is inflammation of the liver and affects hundreds of thousands of people in the UK each year
  • Two case studies of arranging protection insurance for people that have experienced hepatitis

I will be back next time with a short episode going through key parts of group critical illness cover and the do’s and don’ts of advising on this type of cover.
