General FAQ

1. What is meant by "accident" and "accidental death"?

Accident means an event resulting in bodily injury occurring whilst this policy is in force, where the injury is directly and solely caused by accidental, violent and external and visible means and where the injury is not self-inflicted.

Accidental death means death occurring as a direct result of an accident which took place while the life insured was covered under the policy and where death occurs within 12 calendar months of the accident.

2. I have a personal accident policy with another insurer. Can I take up another policy with Liberty General Insurance? Will both policies pay for claims?

Yes, you can take up PA policy with more than one insurance companies. In the event of legitimate claim, you will receive the full amount payable under your PA policy even though you have received compensation from other insurance company except for medical expenses where we will only reimburse for the amount that have not been reimbursed under any other policy.

3. Can a person claim for medical expenses due to illness / disease?

No. A Personal Accident (PA) policy pays only for medical expenses which result in bodily injury caused by accidental means.

4. Does Personal Accident (PA) insurance provide coverage for Bereavement / Funeral Expenses?

Yes, if you choose to purchase our PA Supreme Insurance policy and/or Kurnia Star PA Insurance policy or other specially arranged policy.

5. What is weekly benefits?

If the Insured Person is temporarily unable to engage in or attend to his/her profession or occupation due to bodily injury caused by an accident as certified by a medical practitioner, the Company will pay the Insured Person the amount specified under Weekly Benefits (Temporary Total Disablement / Temporary Partial Disablement), effective from the date of confirmation of such temporary disablement by a registered medical practitioner.

6. I already have a health and life insurance cover. Why should I buy Personal Accident Insurance?

Life insurance offers death benefit to your nominee in case of your demise. Health insurance provides compensation and/or reimbursement of hospitalization and other medical expenses.

A Personal Accident (PA) Insurance policy, on the other hand, insures against financial risk that could arise due to accidental injury, permanent total disability or accidental death of the insured person by offering variety of benefits e.g. death, permanent disablement, hospital income and weekly benefits.

7. I am a homemaker who spends majority of time at home. Do I also need a personal accident insurance?
