ductal carcinoma in situ
A woman who suffered from breast cancer has been denied insurance payout as she tried to rebuild her life after the terrible breast cancer due to an omission in her policy. Jilly had £70,000 of cover of which she claimed for and was totally confident that it would pay out but this was not to be. She was diagnosed with cancerous cells confined to ducts in her breast which is best known as ‘ductal carcinoma in situ’ and this was not covered in her insurance.

Apparently this claim is not covered because the type of cancer Jilly has is such an early form of cancer that it can be treated successfully, but this is bad news because Jilly says the Natwest salesmen did not point out any pitfalls when she was sold the policy.

Jilly said that if she did not have her breast removed her cancer would have spread and then it would have qualified for her claim, but this means she would have risked her life.

Should Jilly have got her insurance payout?
