GOLD
Cover & Benefits
Whilst we hope
that you will never have a serious accident
or illness, financial circumstances can change
as a result. These circumstances could affect
your whole family.
For just a small increase
in your monthly payment, Gold cover will provide
all the benefits of Bronze cover with the
addition of disability benefit. If you are
unable to work for a period in excess of 30
days you will qualify for 1 month’s
payment as at day 31. The first qualifying
day of a claim for disability is the day you
are signed off work by a doctor.
Claims will continue
to be met during the term of the cover at
1/30th of the monthly payment for each day
you remain signed off work, until you return
to work, or your cover ends, whichever comes
first. The maximum monthly benefit
is £1,500 per month.
Who
is likely to be at risk
Pre-existing conditions are excluded, however
there are still areas of high risk to look
out for;
• Dangerous occupations

their savings in such an event
