Combined Health + Life Insurance Plan: Here’s Why It Makes Double Sense

There is no denying that today’s uncertain world has made getting insurance protection the need of the hour. Even as new viruses and diseases emerge, resulting in loss of health and life, protecting oneself and the family against such unforeseen scenarios has become even more imperative. If you haven’t already invested, as part of sound financial planning, to protect your family’s present and future, it is advisable to do so in earnest. One of the first steps in this process is to have two insurance covers that are critical: life insurance and health insurance.

But if you’re going to take life cover and health insurance, why make it complicated?

It is a comprehensive solution that gives 3D cover against Death, Disease and Disability.
