Trauma/Serious Illness
Ongoing advances in medical treatment mean New Zealanders have a greater chance of surviving a serious illness than ever before but it may take 6/12/24 months to recover so there is a greater need for financial support.
Serious Illness, also known as Trauma insurance, pays you a tax-free lump sum if you have a serious medical condition specified in your policy (typically covered conditions listed below).
The diagnosis of a trauma event is devastating under any circumstance, but the burden will be far greater if your financial security is also put at risk. Trauma insurance takes the pressure off, so you can spend your time focusing on recovering – not worrying about your finances!
Cancer Only Cover
There is also specialized Cancer Only Cover for people who don’t qualify for full Trauma Cover but want cover for a cancer event. This policy helps if you attack cancer, even in the early stages. Cancer Cover pays you a lump sum of money if you experience any early-stage cancer or meet the claim criteria for more severe cancers. This cover is designed to help people recover physically and financially from cancer.
