What is Child Critical Illness insurance?

With Child Critical Illness insurance, you’ll receive a one-off payment that can help lighten the financial pressures, allowing you to focus on your child’s recovery.

With Child Critical Illness Insurance you also have access to Vivo at no additional cost. Vivo is a holistic health, wellness and recovery program. Through Vivo you can gain access to a service called Expert Medical Opinion which can connect you with a global network of medical professionals who can give you a second opinion on your child’s diagnosis and treatment plan.

How does it work?

You’ll receive a one-off payment if your child is diagnosed with a Critical Condition for the first time, or if they die.

Cover amounts are available from $10,000 up to $200,000 per child.
