c) Duration of his/her stay abroad.
d) A declaration of continued good health by the proposer.
Rate
of premium is quoted on request. Claim is settled in the country
where the treatment is availed.
Q:6.
Why I have to furnish medical requirements for a revival when I
am paying all the arrear premiums and late fees?
Ans:
The Company insures a man in good health. When there is a discontinuity
the policy becomes irregular and it no longer bears any risk or
bears limited risk as per policy conditions. So, when a revival
is requested, the assured has to produce evidence of insurable condition
of his person. Sometimes a simple declaration of good health by
the assured is enough. But when the period of discontinuity is considerable,
the Company calls for medical evidences.
