Personal Accident Insurance
Their Personal Accident Insurance provides you with monetary compensation in the unfortunate event you suffer accidental injuries, disability, or death.
It also covers your medical expenses that arise as a direct result of this specific incident.
As such, this insurance plan acts as a supplement to your life and medical insurance plans. The premium you pay depends on the cover you take out.
Group Personal Accident, in turn, provides compensation to a group such as a family, employees, “chamas”, learning institutions, SMEs, or any other group of people with a common interest.
ICEA Lion Cancer Insurance
Their Cancer Insurance product is a financial planning solution that pays you in cash in the unfortunate event that you are diagnosed with cancer.
It may be easily confused with your medical insurance that covers you for cancer treatment, rather than paying you in cash to use as you need it.
The payout can be used for actual treatment if your medical cover is insufficient, or to meet your other financial obligations that you may be unable to meet because of your incapacitation from the illness.
This way, you can focus on your treatment, as we focus on your expenses.
The cost of insurance is dependent on your age, gender, and whether you smoke.
As such, the cost is specific to you and not a lumped figure. For instance, if you are 18, male and a non-smoker, you can pay less than Ksh 200 per month for a cover of Ksh 1 Million.
The cover ranges from Ksh 1 million to 15 million.
Education Insurance (UsomiBora)
This is a type of life insurance that allows you to save towards your child’s education.
The plan enables you to set aside a given amount every so often, monthly, quarterly, or annually for a specified period, so that you have sufficient funds to invest in the quality of education you desire for your child.
This policy also has a protection component that pays out the amount you intend to your nominated beneficiaries in the unfortunate event of your demise.
What Are Some of The Factors to Consider When Purchasing Education Insurance?
- The type of school you want for your child: Public or Private
- What curriculum do you want for your child: Local or International, i.e. CBC (Competency Based Curriculum), 8.4.4 or IGCSE.
- The amount you can set aside periodically; this premium depends on the future cost of education, determined by your preferred calibre of institution and inflation.
- The duration between when you start paying and when you want the insurance policy to start paying you, that is, either at the primary, secondary, or tertiary levels. This also depends on the education system you have enrolled your child in. This education policy allows for a minimum of eight (8) years and a maximum of seventeen (17) years.
