To Funding with Life Credit
Treatment often includes surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, immunotherapy, or targeted therapy. Many patients require multiple rounds of treatment over months or years, with significant side effects that prevent them from working.
Lung cancer treatment costs average $150,000 to $250,000 or more. The combination of lost income and high treatment costs creates severe financial strain — studies show over 70% of lung cancer patients report significant financial hardship.
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.
Unlike a viatical settlement, you don't sell your policy. Your beneficiaries still receive the remaining death benefit.
Receive up to 50% of your death benefit in as few as 3 days. When you're fighting cancer, you can't wait months.
The loan is repaid from the death benefit. You never make a payment. No income requirements, no credit check.
Medical bills, mortgage payments, experimental treatments, travel, childcare — there are no restrictions on how you use the money.
If you meet these basic requirements, you may be eligible for a Living Benefit Loan:
You have a life insurance policy with a death benefit of $75,000 or more (term, whole, universal, or group)
You have been diagnosed with lung cancer or another serious medical condition
Your policy is active and premiums are current (or within the grace period)
