Trauma

Marie, 39, was diagnosed with breast cancer. Fortunately for Marie, four years earlier, she took out a Trauma cover. Marie claimed on her policy and received $549,900. This allowed Marie to access the best possible medical treatment which included the use of a special drug to protect her ability to have a family.

Trauma insurance pays a lump sum or benefit payments on diagnosis of a range of serious illnesses, including heart attack, stroke and malignant cancer. This money can be used for whatever purpose you choose, and can go towards medical bills and home modifications.
