Having a serious disease can have a significant impact on your lifestyle and the treatment can be expensive. This cover relieves the financial burden on you and your family. The level of cover you need depends on your personal needs and circumstances. We recommend that you speak to a financial planner to help you select the most appropriate cover.
Benefits
Cover additional medical expenses not covered by your medical aid and provide for unplanned expenses associated with adapting your lifestyle.
How it works
You make monthly contributions until you are diagnosed with one of the insured diseases. When diagnosed you receive a lump sum payment. We pay 100% of the cover amount for the least to most severe levels of cancer, heart attacks, stroke and coronary artery bypass grafts.
How much you will pay
The cost of the insurance will depend on your age and your risk profile when you take out the policy.
Why it’s important to have the right insurance
Your critical illness cover should enable you and your family to maintain your lifestyle, despite extra expenses associated with your illness. If you don't have sufficient cover, you won't have enough money to pay your expenses, which will lead to financial strain. You also shouldn't pay for cover you don't need. That is why it is important to speak to a financial planner before you make a decision about your insurance cover.
