For example, you got into an accident that affects your motor skills or contracted a serious illness that needs rehabilitation treatment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You might be thinking that you have nothing to worry about, because you have a medical plan. But what if you need a long time to recover and recuperate from your injury or your illness?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Serious-illnesses-can-wreak-havoc-on-your-finances\"><\/span><b>Serious illnesses can wreak havoc on your finances<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Contracting a serious illness or getting into a serious accident is already a very harrowing experience to go through, but even recovering or recuperating from the repercussions caused by these incidents can be very hard, both emotionally and financially.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most of us are aware about how <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.prudential.com.my\/en\/we-do-pulse\/all-stories\/top-3-critical-illnesses-in-malaysia\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">expensive<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> medical treatments for serious illness can be, which is why a basic medical plan is necessary to protect our finances against the high cost of treatment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But did you know that just a medical card may not be enough to cover all the costs you need for your treatments?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s because there are lots of hidden costs you will face when recovering or recuperating from a serious illness. This is where critical illness insurance can come to your rescue to provide the financial support not covered by a medical plan.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s take having cancer for an example. A recent <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/codeblue.galencentre.org\/2021\/10\/01\/time-to-seriously-address-the-expensive-and-rising-cost-of-cancer-yek-ching-kong-dr-nirmala-bhoo-pathy\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">study<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> which followed breast cancer patients over a two-year period revealed a long list of unmet financial needs, even for patients with access to government healthcare facilities and employment medical insurance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Besides direct expenses to treat the illness including surgery and medicines, other types of costs faced by the patients include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">transport and parking costs for daily outpatient treatment sessions<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">reduced income when other family members need to stop working to care for the cancer patient\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">job loss or taking long periods of unpaid leave when the patient is unable to work after employment medical leave is used up<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">paying for additional childcare or house help when the patient is too ill to look after the household<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">paying upfront for supportive medical equipment which may end up not being claimable under basic medical plans<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">out<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2010<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">of<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2010<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">pocket payments for traditional and complementary medicine, including for mental health<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many other serious illnesses may also need a long period of rehabilitation even after hospitalisation, involving medication, physiotherapy or require professional care programmes. For example, stroke patients often need <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">professional caregiving <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">until they regain their mobility. This can cost around RM25 per hour to over RM5000 per month.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A critical illness plan can provide a lump sum payment to help cover these additional costs.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"But-not-all-critical-illness-plans-are-created-equal\"><\/span><b>But not all critical illness plans are created equal\u00a0<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that you know the true financial toll of a serious illness, you might be asking, what do you need to cover yourself from such situations?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The answer is simple, you need insurance coverage that can provide a lump sum payment to you to protect your finances from facing financial ruin if something happens to you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, while all critical illness plans do provide a lump sum payout for a predefined list of conditions (usually 36 types of illnesses), many fall short when it comes to looking after your overall health.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For instance, besides the limitation to 36 illnesses, many plans in the market today do not cover the early stages of an illness, provide post-surgery support, or address mental health conditions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The is where <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.prudential.com.my\/en\/products-health\/critical-illness\/comprehensive\/PruAll-care\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>PRU<\/strong>All Care by Prudential<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> goes beyond regular critical illness coverage.
