*Severe Disability means the inability of the Life Assured to perform at least 3 of 6 Activities of Daily Living, even with the aid of special equipment and always require the physical assistance of another person throughout the entire activity.
#Severe disability insurance can help you cover the cost of care and recovery following disability due to accident or illness. The Ministry of Health's ElderShield scheme, introduced in 2002, provides participants with this basic level of protection.
^ This refers to when the life assured is receiving either the Severe Disability Benefit or the Rehabilitation Benefit. |

Beyond providing you with exceptional benefits for a reasonable premium, MyCare also allows you to customise your policy by choosing the coverage options that are right for you.
