  • Why is Life Insurance so important?

    Life Insurance 101- Why is Life Insurance so important?

    Life insurance is all about giving the people you care about most, financial security if you’re no longer alive to support them.

    • With life insurance, when you die, (or become terminally ill), your nominated loved one(s) can receive a lump sum payment.
    • They can use this to continue living the life you want them to. Mortgages can be paid out, children’s private education fees paid, people aren't forced to leave the home or area where they have been used to living and frail aged or special needs people in your life can be cared for.

    If you’re in business, it can mean that if you unexpectedly pass away, your business debts are paid out and that the business doesn't have to be wound up or forced into a sale.

    • It can also mean that you (or your business partners) are not forced into continuing business with the remaining family of business partners. The possibilities are as individual as your needs.
  • Why should I care about the difference between general and personal insurance?

    Why should I care about the difference between general and personal insurance?

    Understanding this difference can save you tens of thousands of dollars over the life of a policy. You can have peace of mind that should you need to claim on your policy, you don't need to expect a company to look for a way to void the policy as its first response.

  • Will I need a blood test as part of the insurance application process?

    Will I need a blood test as part of the insurance application process?

    More than likely yes. The majority of clients require blood tests now.

    • We use a mobile pathology service to meet you when convenient (even after hours if that helps) to take the standard blood test sample.
    • Alternatively, we can send you a form to take to your treating GP and have that completed with them. (Our experience is that the mobile services is the fastest options and that's what most people seem to be comfortable with). When and how is always your choice
  • Will you ask about my HbA1c history when making an application for life insurance?

    Will you ask about my HbA1c history when making an application for life insurance?

    Yes. Insurers will always look to confirm your historical HbA1c results before being able to determine whether products like life insurance and income protection are available to you.  Your most recent HbA1c reading is often considered as the ‘gold standard’ when determining the level of control someone has over their diabetes.
