The Road Accident Fund (RAF) Claims have a special procedure to file for a claim. There is a prescribed statutory claim form which needs to be filled out. Please make note of the fact that Form 1 is to be used for claims arising before August 01, 2008. Similarly Form RAF1 should be used for claims filed after August 2008 onwards. The statutory claim form gives the information on the applicant, the parties involved in the accident, the amount claimed and of course, the date and the place of the accident. Just like school, college or any other, you need to also provide a medical certificate or a medical report from the doctor that treated you. This is needed in most cases as a proof of the medical treatment that you were undergoing due to the accident and proves to be a very important document while claiming a road accident fund. It is more necessary than you think it is. So be sure to check whether all your medical records are in order and are appropriately printed and stored by you.

“Critical illness and disability insurance are increasingly complex and policy holders are sometimes left with less money than they thought after a debilitating event. We ask how brokers should be advising their clients to make sure they get the most out of their cover.

If you are permanently disabled, you will probably face a choice in how you want to be paid a benefit.

One of the things I find most concerning when speaking to people outside our industry about their life insurance is their cheerful belief that some cover is better than no cover. This is purely anecdotal evidence from my own conversations with people – but it may also be one of the reasons why the often-cited 2010 insurance gap study by Asisa and True South Actuaries shows such massive underinsurance among the currently insured market.

Traditional disability assurance is paid based on your ability to work or not. Impairment assurance is based only on functional impairment.

If you work, whether or not you have dependents, you will need disability cover. You could be disabled on your first day of work, and you need an income for the rest of your life. Bruce Cameron reports on this often-neglected and problematic type of assurance.
