Many people pay extra money each month, on top of their regular health insurance payment, so they can get special insurance that covers them in case they get cancer.
If you have health insurance, you don't need to buy cancer insurance. Your current health insurance more than likely covers cancer!
Why don't you pay for a specialty insurance that covers heart attacks? Because your normal health insurance covers heart attacks. You shouldn't buy cancer insurance for the same reason. Instead of paying extra every month for insurance you don't need, use that money toward your debt snowball.
What You Need
Keep in mind, you must have health insurance; you just don't need specialty cancer insurance. Unpaid medical bills are the number one reason people file for bankruptcy, so it's important that you are prepared.
- Good health insurance that covers cancer (most do)
