Max Bupa Health Assurance Critical Illness

Objective

A standalone policy that provides financial respite in case policyholder is diagnosed with life threatening illness.

Our View

Critical illness policy is useful as it helps sail through financial turmoil if a family member contracts any life threatening disease. Anyone with a history of critical illness in the family must buy an adequate critical illness cover as the protection offered by a basic health policy may not be sufficient to cover higher expenses.

What does it do?
