Would you recommend separate PA plan or rider in my existing term plan?

  1. Dear MSP, sample this – you were holidaying in Goa with your family & met in an ordinary accident whiling enjoying the sea. You are injured & temp. total disable.

    In the above case – ADDBR rider of term plan ‘ll not pay a single penny.

    PAP ‘ll provide the cover as per the sum assured & the %age of disability.

    There is more to it. ADDBR of term plan is a one time affair. Once it has been claimed, you can’t renew it. On the other hand, PAP is like your mediclaim or car policy & can be renewed years after years & after multiple claims.

    Thanks

    Dear Shreef, taking a separate accidental insurance is much beneficial since benefits are far much higher than taking both the riders (accidental & permanent disability).

    A term plan rider will be cheaper by cost point of view .. but it will not be as detailed and comprehensive as a stand alone policy . If you only need a Accidental death and Permanent total disability benefit , then term plan riders will help you .. But more than that will require a seperate accidental plan .
