Critical Illness Protection
LSU partners with UnitedHealthcare to provide you and your family with valuable Critical Illness insurance. This benefit is designed to help protect you and your family's financial health. Critical Illness insurance can help fill a financial gap if you or a family member experiences a severe, life-threatening illness, such as cancer, heart attack, and major organ transplant. Upon diagnosis of a covered illness, you can receive a lump-sum benefit.
Critical Illness and Dependents can only be changed or cancelled during Annual Enrollment or due to a qualifying event
