Practical Protection Podcast: CIC Masterclass
Hi everyone. I hope you had a nice Christmas break? We’re now back with the last episode of season 6 of the Practical Protection Podcast.

This time I’m joined by Alan Knowles from Cura Financial Services to talk about all things critical illness cover. Alan talks us through case studies of arranging critical illness cover for people who have had disclosures to make, which has resulted in exclusions of premium increases on the policy.
The case studies that Alan explains in depth are critical illness policies:
- For someone living with multiple sclerosis,
- For someone that had experienced a strong mental health history,
- and a case study of helping a person make a claim on their critical illness cover policy when they had been told they weren’t eligible.
You can listen to the episode at https://practical-protection.co.uk/critical-illness-cover-masterclass/.
Don’t forget to claim your CPD certificate once you have listened to the episode: https://practical-protection.co.uk/claim-your-cpd/.

Please don’t worry if your work systems are not keen on the CPD form (it’s a Google form). Contact me on social media or through the website and I will be able to issue the certificate directly to you.
Next time we will be starting season 7. I am joined by Roy and special guest host, Setul Mehta.
