SmartMedic Shield, SmartMedic Shield Extender and SmartMedic Shield Plus are unit deduction medical riders attachable to selected regular premium investment-linked insurance plans. These plans are insurance products that are tied to the performance of the underlying assets, and are not pure investment products such as unit trusts. The insurance charge to be imposed will be deducted from the total investment value of your policy on a monthly basis. You may stop paying premiums under the policy and still enjoy protection as long as there is sufficient total investment value to pay for the insurance charge. However, there is a possibility of the policy lapsing when the required charges, including rider charges exceed the total investment value of the fund units available. Purchasing too many unit deduction riders may deplete the fund units.
You have the option to include SmartMedic Shield Extender and/or SmartMedic Shield Plus to your investment-linked insurance plan; however, it must be attached together with SmartMedic Shield. If SmartMedic Shield Extender and/or SmartMedic Shield Plus are subsequently included to your investment-linked insurance plan after your coverage under SmartMedic Shield becomes effective, then the first policy year of SmartMedic Shield Extender and/or SmartMedic Shield Plus will be adjusted accordingly and will be shorter than a year. For subsequent years, the policy anniversary of SmartMedic Shield Extender and/or SmartMedic Shield Plus will coincide with SmartMedic Shield’s policy anniversary.
You should satisfy yourself that these riders will best serve your needs and that the premium payable under the policy is an amount you can afford. A free-look period of 15 days is given for you to review the suitability of the Medical and Health Insurance (MHI) product. If a rider is cancelled during this period, the policy owner is entitled to the reinstatement of the units deducted for the payment of insurance charge after net of expenses incurred for the medical examination, if any. If you switch your Medical Policy/Rider from one company to another or if you exchange your current Medical Policy/Rider with another Medical Policy/Rider within the same company, you may be required to submit an application where acceptance of your proposal will be subject to the terms and conditions to be imposed at the time of Policy/Rider switching or replacement.
