Deferred Period

If you have selected cover to begin after 1, 4, 8, 13, 26 or 52 weeks and do not have any other forms of income to cover you before your selected deferred period, you might like to consider our Day One Accident Protection option. For an additional premium, you can protect yourself against lost earnings as a result of an accident from Day One, even though your benefit payments for illness would start from your chosen deferred period.
