However, many still felt that the coverage wasn't sufficient with the inflationary pressures of old age in Singapore. So at long last, Tokio Marine Group has listened and came up with their version of long term care policy by launching TM Protect 1 on 10 January
Some of the features of this plan are as follows:
- Pays out on 1 ADL (Activity of Daily Living) ~ Eldershield requires 3 ADLs before a payout
- TM Protect 1 allows you to choose between a 3 year or 6 years benefit payout. ~ Eldershield only has a 6 years payout.
- TM Protect 1 has monthly benefit payouts from $1000 to $5000 (this can definitely complement your Eldershield policy and keep abreast with the cost of living when you are old) ~ Eldershield has only a $400 monthly benefit payout program
- 1 time Get well benefit after full recovery from the ADL disability
- 1 time Death Benefit of $5000 if death occurs during policy period
- Caregiver paid a 1 month benefit payout (this is a ONE time payout) 30 days after assured is deemed to have the ADL disability.
- If assured is certified to have ADL due to Heart Attack or Stroke, there is a ONE lump sum payout of 200% monthly benefit
