How to protect and cover your extended family members?
The New and Efficient Way:
Purchase an insurance plan to cover your extended family member who is your dependent without proof of dependency for Sum Assured (SA) of RM100,000 and below*.
*If Sum Assured is more than RM100,000 per life, proof of financial dependency is required.
Alternatively, purchase protection for your extended family as a Payor:
Spouse, Children/Grandchildren, Parent/Grandparent, Brother/Sister, Employee, Uncle/Aunty, Nephew/Niece and Cousin can be payor to the insurance plan of the dependent.
