Although critical illness cover might feel very similar to medical insurance, they're actually quite different. Critical illness cover pays you a lump sum of money if you have a designated disease or condition that’s covered in your policy. Essentially, it helps you worry less about your finances while you recuperate and get the treatment you need. On the other hand, most of the medical insurance plans reimburse your medical expenses and cover hospitalization costs. The claims are in the form of actual reimbursement. Therefore, critical illness insurance and medical insurance may seem similar, but in fact, the form of protection are different.

For term critical illness plans, you’re paying for the coverage that matters most to you, which means paying a lower premium than critical illness insurance plans with savings element in general.
Finally, we’ve made sure you can get covered instantly with no need to go through complicated medical tests.
We designed this particular plan as we wanted to offer the best possible coverage. We refer to cancer, heart attack and stroke as ‘the big 3 diseases’ as these three alone made up 90%2 of our critical illness claims in 2020.
While some term critical illness plans on the market may not cover carcinoma-in-situ, FWD’s MyCover does. The plan covers several cases of carcinoma-in-situ including breast, lung, and cervix uteri. Plus it covers early-stage malignancy of specific organs – including prostate, thyroid and non-melanoma skin cancer. In case any of these happen, we’ll pay 35% of the initial sum insured (up to HK$400,000).
You can also choose to enhance the coverage for an additional 59 critical illnesses.
We refer to this optional cover as our ‘Crisis Benefit’. Should you be diagnosed with any of the covered crisis, we’ll pay 100% of the current sum insured – as soon as you’re diagnosed.
Following any claims payment for one of the big three diseases, you then can go on to claim for further medical expenses after the eligible expense of such big 3 disease have reached a pre-set limit, for up to two years after your first confirmed diagnosis of such big three disease.
We’ll pay either up to 100% initial sum insured under all policies of the Term Critical Illness Series with Additional Medical Coverage for Big 3 Diseases or up to HK$1,000,000 per life under all policies of the Term Critical Illness Series3 with Additional Medical Coverage for Big 3 Diseases – whichever is lower.
