Q:Can I claim for accidental death or permanent disability if I become die or become permanently disabled after a stroke?

A:

No. Death or permanent disability is not covered if it is directly or indirectly caused by illness such as a stroke.
Q:If I am hospitalized for 6 days due to sickness (eg. a stroke), can I claim for daily hospital income?

A:

No. Daily hospital income only covers hospitalization due to accident and not sickness.
Q:Does this policy cover me if I am hospitalised for 4 days due to an accident?

A:

No. The policy only covers you if you are hospitalized for at least 5 days due to an accident.
Q:What happens if I am hospitalised more than once due to the same accident?

A:

Provided that the first hospital stay was at least 5 days, we will add on the number of days of the subsequent hospitalisation to it.

Both stays must be caused by the same accident (or related cause), and both periods of hospitalization must be less than 2 months apart. The maximum number of days that we will cover is 60 days for each accident.

For example:
1st hospitalization stay = 7 days
2nd hospitalization stay = 3 days
Total = 10 days’ of daily hospital income
Q:Can I claim under both the Get Well Benefit (Section 4) and the Job loss Benefit (Section 5) for the same event?

A:

No, you cannot claim under both. You can only claim under either Section 4 (Get Well Benefit) or Section 5 (Job loss Benefit) for the same incident.
