The
risk of developing cancer, unfortunately, is very real.
| • |
In
the US, men have a 1 in 2 lifetime risk of developing
cancer, and for women the risk is 1 in 3. |
As
serious as the threat of cancer may be, new and improved
medical treatments are being introduced; and studies are
showing that regular screening tests can detect some cancers
in the early stages.
| • |
The
5-year relative survival rate for screening-accessible
cancers is about 82 percent. If all Americans participated
in regular cancer screenings, this rate could increase
to 95 percent. |
But with high technology
come high costs. The American Cancer Society reports that
cancer costs Americans more than $172 billion annually.
And much of that amount is considered indirect or hidden
costs not covered by major medical plans.
Park
Avenue Insurance can provide a supplemental Cancer Security
plan for you and your employees at an affordable price to
help cover some of those non-covered costs.
