![]() Income Protection insurance questions and answersWhat's the difference between Income Protection and Permanent Health Insurance?Income Protection is sometimes called Permanent Health Insurance or PHI because it gives you an income if you can't work for health reasons, such as a serious accident or illness, but it doesn't cover you for redundancy. If you need to ensure an income if you lose your job, you'll need to think about a separate Redundancy cover or Unemployment insurance. Do I need Income Protection if I have Critical Illness Cover?While Critical Illness will pay you a tax free cash lump sum if you are diagnosed with a serious illness included in the policy such as heart disease or cancer, Income Protection will give you an income. Most people use the money from their Critical Illness policy to pay off large liabilities such as the mortgage or school fees, but use their Income Protection to live on. Can I have Income Protection if I am self-employed?Yes. If you are self-employed, the premium you'll pay and the income you'll receive is normally based on your taxable income or profits during the year before your accident or illness.
