Understanding your cover

What's covered?

If you're unable to work or can’t care for yourself due to an injury or illness, we can provide you with monthly financial support for up to two years:

  • If you’re completely unable to work or can only continue working in your usual job for up to 10 hours per week, you may be eligible for 100% of your monthly sum insured.
  • If you're working in any job for less than 75% of your previous normal weekly hours, you may be eligible to receive a percentage of your monthly sum insured.
  • If you’re confined to home or hospital or need help from another adult to care for yourself, you may be eligible for 100% of your monthly sum insured.

What's not covered?

We won’t pay any claim under Expenses Cover that directly or indirectly results from:

  • Intentional self-harm, including attempted suicide.
  • Pregnancy or complications resulting from pregnancy, unless the disability lasts more than 90 days after the pregnancy.
  • Taking part in a criminal activity.
  • Failing to follow the advice or treatment of a medical practitioner.
