What are the Terms and Conditions I should be aware of?

- critical illness rider/plan , including Beyond Critical Cover series that provide a lump sum payout based on Admission Events.
Upon claimed from this benefit, am I still eligible to make claim from SFAP 2.0?
Yes, you will still be eligible for the SFAP2.0 if you meet the criteria of the programme.
How do file a claim under this benefit?
You may proceed to file a claim based on the normal procedure for reimbursement of hospitalisation expenses.
