Looking after the people who depend on you
LifeCare is designed to help look after the people who matter the most in your life. If you have family who depend on you, what would happen to them if you become seriously ill, had a bad accident or died? LifeCare helps provide the reassurance they need. A claim payment could be used to help pay loans, living expenses, the cost of medical treatment, funeral expenses, future education costs and more.

Pick and choose the cover you need
From a base of death and terminal illness cover, you can apply for other options to help create all-round protection, so that you'll always have protection that fits.

Standard covers

  • Death and terminal illness cover provides a lump sum payment if you die or become terminally ill. It can make a big difference to your family because it pays a lump sum that can be used for anything.  Funeral expenses, loan repayments and living expenses are some examples of how it could help
  • Bereavement Support benefit helps with immediate expenses by providing an advance payment of $5000 if the person insured dies
  • Child Death Cover benefit. To make things easier at a traumatic time, if the policy is taken out by the person insured it provides an immediate payment of $2000 if a child of the person insured dies in an accident aged between 3 and 10 years

Optional covers

  • Critical Condition benefit provides a lump sum if the person insured suffers a serious illness like a heart attack or cancer. The money can be used for any purpose – from rehabilitation to a well-deserved holiday
  • Permanent Disability benefit pays a lump sum if you become permanently disabled and are unable to work again. It helps takes the financial pressure off your family at a difficult time
  • Temporary Disability benefit, debt protection cover that helps pay your loan repayments for up to two years if you are unable to work due to disability
  • Redundancy benefit, debt protection cover that can help take care of loan repayments if you are made redundant
