An Accident is an event which is sudden, unexpected or unforeseen and it leads to an outcome which the Insured person did not intend or anticipate. It does not include the progressive cumulative result of a series of small incidents. The Policy premium generally not affected by age and does not increase as you get older. Premiums are usually based on occupation. Each occupation type involves specific work activities which would expose the individual to different risk hazards and this has a direct effect on the premium chargeable.

Personal Accident (PA) Insurance

is designed to provide financial protection and financial burden relief to you (the insured) against the risk of accidental death or bodily injury happening to you. Upon accidental death of the insured, this policy will pay a sum of money to his beneficiary (usually the dependent). Another important function is to help mitigate the loss of potential future income and to fund additional expenses incurred due to any disability condition and therefore unable to conduct his usual occupation or work.

PA Insurance is generally a Benefit Policy, which means it is a contract to pay a sum of money in the event of a certain contingency, irrespective of whether or not the insured sustains a financial loss. Hence, there is no need to prove the quantum of loss, unlike a contract of indemnity.

This type of insurance is of particular benefit to individuals who are self-employed and individuals with needs for financial protection against accident death, permanent total or partial disability, as well as for funds to meet with potentially huge medical bills especially for treatment in event of serious or protracted accidental bodily injuries.

Both policies offer coverage for accidental related risks in different ways. Travel Insurance covers you against mishaps, expenses and liabilities during your trip out of Singapore. Personal Accident Insurance covers you against the risk of accidental death, bodily injury or medical expenses within Singapore. In general you are covered while you are overseas for a period of 180 days from the day of departure from Singapore only. In this respect PA Insurance policy has limited worldwide geographical coverage.
