Zurich offers Precision CancerCare and Second Medical Opinion+ service, provided by Further, for their new and reviewing customers.
The Precision CancerCare service provides access, for those with a cancer that meets the eligibility criteria, to advanced genetic testing, using the latest tumour profiling technology and expert medical panels.
The Second Medical Opinion+ service offers access to an independent evaluation of a diagnosis, treatment plan, or medical condition from a qualified medical professional, other than an individual’s primary doctor.
The Reframe Cancer Support and Information Hub service is available to Group Critical Illness customers and their employees, which will work alongside our in-house Critical Illness Support service.
Essential support at a difficult time This Reframe Cancer Support Service is here to support those that have received a new cancer diagnosis and to make sure that they have a dedicated expert to help them access the right information, the right specialists and the right support at a time when it’s needed most.
Group Critical Illness customers will also have access to Reframe’s Information Hub, which helps to increase awareness of symptoms to encourage earlier detection of cancer and can help to identify cancer risks and promote healthy lifestyle choices. The Information Hub is available to insured members, regardless of whether they have cancer or not.
This service can help to boost existing cancer support strategies and provide valuable resources for those dealing with a cancer diagnosis.
