Types of Policy

Types of policy• There are different types of personal accident insurance policy on the basis of payment of claim, coverage, premium rate. There are as follows  Simple personal accident policies only pay a cash sum following an accident where you are injured  Simple income protection policies pay when you are off work following an accident  Where they merge is when an income protection policy also includes illness, and a personal accident policy includes sickness and/ or pays monthly benefits rather than a cash sum.

 We regard policies which cover an accident and sickness/ illness by paying a cash sum as Personal Accident We regard policies which cover accident and illness by paying a monthly benefit as Income Protection.  Insurers themselves often confuse you by using vague product names like “Protection " which can include income protection, critical illness, life, personal accident and other products. - or a flashy name which gives no indication of what it covers.

• There are three main ways to partially or wholly protect you against the costs of long term care.• On some products, you only get money if you qualify as needing care.• On some products, you get money anyway, but there is some help in arranging care if needed.• On investment and Equity Release products, you choose whether or not to use the proceeds on care.

So personal accident insurance is very essential and Life insurance cover without personal accident cover is inadequate from risk management point of view.• The personal accident policy provides compensation in event of insured sustaining injuries solely and directly from an accident cause by violence, visible and external means, resulting in to death or disablement be it temporary or permanent.

What benefits should I expect?• A simple personal accident policy pays a set cash sum on death.• On other benefits, there may be a cash sum, a monthly income or a mixture of the two.
