Understanding Brain Cancer

The Financial Burden of Brain Cancer Treatment

Treatment may include surgery, radiation (including stereotactic radiosurgery), chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or tumor treating fields (TTF). Treatment is often intensive and extended, with significant neurological side effects.

Brain cancer treatment frequently exceeds $200,000. Tumor treating fields devices (Optune) cost approximately $21,000 per month. Surgery, radiation, and ongoing monitoring add tens of thousands more.

How a Living Benefit Loan Helps Brain Cancer Patients

If you have a life insurance policy with a death benefit of $75,000 or more, you may be able to borrow against it — without selling it, without monthly payments, and without a credit check.

Keep Your Policy

Unlike a viatical settlement, you don't sell your policy. Your beneficiaries still receive the remaining death benefit.

Fast Funding

Receive up to 50% of your death benefit in as few as 3 days. When you're fighting cancer, you can't wait months.

No Monthly Payments

The loan is repaid from the death benefit. You never make a payment. No income requirements, no credit check.

Use Funds for Anything

Medical bills, mortgage payments, experimental treatments, travel, childcare — there are no restrictions on how you use the money.
