Critical Illness cover
Mandy would have received an additional R 100 000 ( this benefit pays 15% of the CILS cover value up to R100 000) to help her pay for her surgery.
Breast cancer is by far the most common female cancer and to further complicate an already traumatic experience, a woman is faced with the decision of whether to undergo breast reconstruction surgery after a mastectomy. This is a personal decision and the surgery itself is complex and expensive. This additional payment would have allowed Mandy to make the decision without worrying about the cost.
PLUS Extra 30% pay-out
1. A second opinion to be sure that the diagnosis is correct and you have the best possible treatment plan
2. Cover for extra expenses that come with treating a critical illness.
3. A monthly income to take as much time off work as required
4. Cover for extra monthly costs that come from living with and adjusting to a serious illness
5. Counselling to help the entire family cope with the trauma and stress
6. Logistical / household support because day to day responsibilities don't stop when you are sick
