Life Cover & Life Income Cover
Cigna’s Life Cover and Life Income Cover are very cost-effective ways to prepare for the future and provide a safety net for your family and dependents in the event of your passing or if you ever fall ill with a terminal illness. The policy will pay out a lump sum in the event of your passing to help your families with the resulting expenses when it happens.
You can use the payment to subsidise lost income, pay off mortgage and other debts, establish a financial safety net for dependents left behind, and pay for future education, healthcare costs, and funeral expenses.
