What is the difference between a terminal illness and a chronic illness? Terminal illness and chronic illness both refer to lifelong conditions. But people with chronic illnesses like diabetes, asthma or autoimmune disorders can potentially manage their disease with treatment.
A chronic illness rider pays a lump sum without restrictions on how it may be used. A long term care rider only requires the clients need to last 90 or more days. This benefit can be used multiple times over the years. A long term care rider can provide a wider range of benefits payable by the rider.
A person with chronic diseases like, hypertension or diabetes can potentially control their disease with a proper diet and exercise. A person diagnosed with a terminal illness like metastatic cancer can exercise and diet, but it will not change the fact that they will eventually succumb to their disease.
The major difference is how long the symptoms will last. Acute illnesses are usually quick and very treatable. Chronic illnesses are long-term and usually require treatment for the rest of your life.
The easiest way to show you have a terminal illness is to ask your GP or another doctor or consultant to fill in a form - its called an SR1 or a DS1500. This form gives the DWP evidence about your illness and treatment. Tell the DWP if you cant get a form.
