Trauma / Diagnosis Insurance

This cover provides a lump sum upon DIAGNOSIS. It is not dependant on whether it is a major case, or a minor case, and it is not dependent upon death. It is paid upon DIAGNOSIS.

Payment is also made regardless of whether you are prevented from working or not. It is available either as a standalone cover, or can be packaged in conjunction with Life Insurance (Death cover), or Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) Insurance.

This type of cover is particularly important because of the statistical chances of any one of us being affected by one of these major medical conditions, prior to dying. The associated medical costs, relating to the treatments and rehabilitation of such a condition, are enormous. The result of such a diagnosis can be not only life threatening, but also life changing.

Trauma Insurance sits outside death cover, and in between Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) Insurance and Income Protection Insurance. You may be diagnosed with Cancer for example, and need the relevant treatment, but you may not be ill enough to be deemed to be unable to work for very long, and you certainly are not necessarily medically defined as TPD.

Trauma Insurance pays a lump sum payment which is not dependant upon TPD nor not unable to work, and of course “you do not have to die to collect” !!!!

The lump sum payment is the amount decided upon, by yourself, within your original application for the Trauma Cover. It is the “sum insured”.

Trauma insurance provides a lump sum payment upon the medical diagnosis of such conditions as, Cancer, Heart attack, Organ transplant, Stroke, or any of the conditions listed below. These conditions can vary from one insurance company to another. They are however, always listed in the respective Product Disclosure Statement booklet. This cover provides a lump sum upon DIAGNOSIS. It is not dependant on whether it is a major case, or a minor case, and it is not dependent upon death. It is paid upon DIAGNOSIS.

Payment is also made regardless of whether you are prevented from working or not. It is available either as a standalone cover, or can be packaged in conjunction with Life Insurance (Death cover), or Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) Insurance.

Trauma insurance is without doubt one of the most crucial areas of your Life Insurance Portfolio.
