Critical Illness Plan
Combined Insurance’s Critical Illness Plan will provide protection for you and your family from the financial impacts of critical illness. The plan provides lump sum benefits of up to $60,000 for heart attack, heart surgery, cancer (life-threatening), major organ transplant, severe burns, paralysis, dismemberment, stroke, renal failure, multiple sclerosis, blindness and benign brain tumour.
You can’t guarantee your health, but you can be prepared in case you’re ill.
Suffering from a prolonged illness can have long term financial implications that can seriously affect your standard of living.
A special feature of the Critical Illness Plan if you chose the 15 year paid up option is that after your plan has been in force for 15 continuous years no further premiums will be due. Your coverage will continue for the rest of your life, or when benefits are paid out, which ever comes first.
The 15 year paid up option allows you to enjoy the coverage free for the rest of your life while your premium is paid in full.
