Dreaded Disease Cover

A dreaded disease policy, is when the insured person receives a lump sum cash payment if diagnosed with a severe illness…

Dread disease cover offers financial protection against critical illnesses such as strokes, heart attacks, cancer etc. and covers injuries caused by accidents such paraplegia, major burns and brain damage.

Dread Disease Cover can provide additional funds for the following:

  • To help offset any shortfall on your medical aid.
  • For additional expenses or reduced income because of lifestyle changes.
  • To access the best medical technology – something that medical aids don’t always do.

Dread disease cover should ideally be taken out at a young age. These policies remain relevant through a person’s working life and into the post retirement years as most companies provide lifelong cover.
