Insurance for Motor Accidents
Injury Protect is an annually renewable insurance policy which pays cash benefits should you have a motor accident and require an emergency medical procedure. Benefits are designed to alleviate the out of pocket costs (e.g. time off work, travel, child care) of undergoing a medical procedure.
Injury Protect benefits are based on the normal recovery time of your operation, so that the longer the normal recovery time the greater the benefit will be that you will receive.
The policy will also reimburse you for emergency dental procedures following a motor accident.
Benefits under personal accident bolt-on plans tend to include standard personal accident benefits (accidental death, loss of sight and permanent total disability) which respond only to catastrophic injuries with relatively low limits.
Car accidents can cause a variety of serious personal injuries and death. Most people hurt in a car crash suffer impact injuries, from slamming into a part of the vehicle upon colliding with another vehicle or object or by being hit by unsecured cargo that becomes airborne in a crash.
Other common car accident injuries are cuts and tear injuries from broken glass and torn metal. In a rollover accident, a car’s occupant can be tossed around and injured from all directions or can even be ejected from the vehicle.
The head, neck, chest, pelvis, abdomen, legs (which includes knees) and feet are the parts of the body most likely to be injured in a motor vehicle collision, according to National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
It is these “non-covered” incidents that Injury Protect is uniquely positioned to cover using its proprietary benefit schedule which pays cash benefits according to normal recovery times.
Injury Protect provides budgets of money designed to alleviate the out of pocket costs (e.g. time off work, travel, child care) of undergoing a medical procedure.
Cash benefits are paid according to the normal expected recovery time of a medical procedure, based on research and consensus guidelines from leading occupational health experts. with higher benefits paid for longer recovery times.
