Critical Illness Silver Plan
Affordable lump-sum cover for 8 major critical illnesses
What Makes It Special:
The Silver Plan pays the sum insured as a single lump sum on first diagnosis of any one of 8 listed critical illnesses after the chosen survival period of 15 or 30 days, and at every age band and sum insured its premium is lower than the Platinum Plan's, which...

Buyers whose main concern is the four most common critical illness categories — heart, cancer, stroke and kidney failure

Quick Decision Guide
Not available
Set the sum insured against the income and costs you would need to replace during treatment rather than against expected hospital bills, because the payout is a fixed benefit and not a reimbursement.
Pre-existing conditions carry a 48-month waiting period, so if you have a declared condition, weigh whether the Silver Plan's lower premium still meets your need over that delay.
The benefit is payable once, so treat this as a supplement to a hospitalisation policy and not a substitute for one.
The plan pays only on first diagnosis of a listed condition as defined in the policy, so read the severity thresholds on heart attack, cancer and stroke before assuming a diagnosis will qualify.
Compare the 8-illness list against the Platinum Plan's 15 before choosing, since the Silver Plan excludes Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, benign brain tumour, end-stage liver failure, surgery of aorta, primary pulmonary hypertension and heart valve replacement or repair.
