These Critical Illness policies cover an awful lot of claims but most importantly they all cover the BIG 4. Cancer, Heart Attack, Multiple Sclerosis and Strokes. 276,678 people were diagnosed with Cancer in the UK during 2003. Heart Attacks were dealt to 75,000 UK residents under the age of 75 in the same year. Around 85,000 people in the UK have Multiple Sclerosis and each year around 130,000 people in the UK have a stroke.
