What is trauma insurance?
Trauma insurance (sometimes referred to as critical illness insurance) provides a lump sum payment if you suffer a specific medical condition, as defined in the policy.
Some of the more common conditions covered include cancer, heart attack and stroke.
Trauma insurance is not available through superannuation.
Trauma insurance provides financial support to help cover:
• the costs of care, and
• recovery associated with specific medical conditions.
Enabling you to focus on your recovery rather than the bills.
A lump sum payment gives you choice when it comes to medical treatment and lifestyle adjustments you may need (or want) to make after suffering a serious medical condition. Not all medical expenses are covered by private health insurance (if you have it).
