Is Cancer Insurance Necessary? 
Given the statistics it is not a bad idea . Even if you have health insurance , the out of pocket costs of uncovered items , loss of income , cost of care and other expenses can be devastating . A cancer policy will help cover those costs . I used to work with an individual who had cancer . She forced herself to come to work every day even though she was extremely ill from the chemo and radiation . She did n't have a choice , she needed the money to pay for her treatment and living expenses , even though she had insurance . I highly recommend it .
