Review:
One of the few standalone maternity plans available for expectant mothers - the GREAT Maternity Care 2 ensures early coverage from as early as 13 weeks of pregnancy until the end of the third policy year, with affordable premiums. This gives complete peace of mind to parents as they start their parenthood journey.
With comprehensive protection for expectant mothers against pregnancy and childbirth complications#, death or total and permanent disability (TPD), hospital care benefit, and mental wellness, they can feel more at ease and worry less about the well-being of their child.
What is even more unique is when the mother is carrying twins, the coverage applies to both children separately. They will both receive protection against death, congenital illnesses, juvenile conditions, hospital care benefits. The children are also covered in the event they need to undergo any surgery on any of the five major organs such as brain, heart, liver, kidneys, or lungs.
GREAT Maternity Care 2 also offers a Guaranteed Insurability Benefit (GIB). This enables mother and child each to purchase an eligible life or wealth plan (covering death, TPD, terminal illness and/or critical illness) within 90 days of birth without any medical underwriting. We appreciate how this allays the fears of the parents if and when the need to be further protected arises. What’s more, any pre-existing conditions of the child diagnosed prior to the purchase of the new plan via GIB option would also be covered, with up to S$30,000 before the child turns 6 years old† and the full sum assured thereafter.
Mothers who had previously purchased the GREAT Maternity Care 2 would be happy to know of their Mum Again benefit, that allows them to buy another maternity plan for their subsequent pregnancy without the need for medical underwriting‡.
