Key benefits

Accidental death

Accidental Death coverage is a type of insurance protection that provides financial compensation to the beneficiaries of the insured individual in the event of their death resulting from an accident. This coverage is typically part of an accident insurance policy or can be included as a rider in life insurance policies. It offers financial security to the family or dependents of the insured in case of accidental death, helping them cope with financial losses during a difficult time.

Permanent total disablement

Permanent Total Disablement (PTD) coverage is a type of insurance that provides financial compensation to the insured individual in the event that they suffer a severe injury or accident that results in permanent and total disability. This condition renders the individual unable to work or perform any significant daily activities ever again. PTD is typically included in personal accident insurance policies and can be an important part of both individual and employee insurance plans.

Medical expenses (due to accident)

Medical Expenses (Due to Accident) coverage is an insurance benefit that helps pay for medical costs incurred as a result of an accident. This coverage is typically included in personal accident insurance, health insurance policies, or may be added as a rider to other types of policies. It provides financial assistance for the treatment and rehabilitation required after an accident, which can include hospital stays, doctor’s visits, surgeries, medications, and other medical services necessary for recovery.

Funeral expenses / repatriation (due to accident and sickness)

Funeral Expenses / Repatriation coverage is an insurance benefit that helps cover the costs of funeral arrangements and, in certain cases, repatriation of the deceased’s body to their home country or final resting place. This coverage is often included in life insurance policies, travel insurance, and certain personal accident policies. It provides financial assistance to the family or beneficiaries of the insured after the insured's death, alleviating the financial burden during an emotionally difficult time.
