Trauma

Trauma has been designed to help you cover medical costs and lessen the severe impact and lifestyle changes that result from any of 48 major illnesses or injuries, such as heart attack, stroke, cancer or blindness.

Features & benefits

For your convenience, Trauma can be purchased on its own or combined with Life and/or Total and Permanent Disability (TPD). It also has flexible benefit options that allow you to customise your package and premium.

Trauma features may include:

• Partial Trauma Cover Benefit, which pays a partial benefit for a range of specific conditions.
• Severe Hardship Booster Benefit, which pays a higher benefit for certain medical conditions.
• Financial Planning Benefit, which helps cover the cost of financial planning following a Trauma Benefit payment.
• Accommodation Benefit, which covers the cost of accommodating a family member to be near you should you be confined to a bed away from home.
• Child Cover Option, which insures your child should they suffer from one of 38 pediatric trauma conditions or die.
• Interim Accident Cover, which covers you for accidents while we’re processing your application.
• Loyalty Bonus Benefit, which rewards you by paying a 5% higher benefit after five years.
• Trauma Cover Buy Back Benefit, which reinstates your cover after 12 months if it’s reduced to less than $10,000 by another claim.
• Indexation: Increases your cover each year in line with inflation.

For added peace of mind, a Trauma Plus option is available and provides you partial cover for an additional 10 adult trauma conditions.
