Loss of weekly income:
Providing you are in gainful employment, should you be unable to work
(and therefore receive an income) this insurance will provide necessary
compensation. The weekly sum insured should be based on the nearest
figure to your net weekly income. The insurers will pay this benefit
up to a full 52 weeks, excluding the first 28 days. |

Emergency medical expenses:
This is NOT a private medical insurance. If you have an accident in
the UK that requires emergency treatment the good old NHS will take
care of you. You will only need this cover if you are racing outside
of the UK and within Europe. If you are racing beyond European boundaries
and you require this cover you will need to call us since there may
be an additional premium to pay. Repatriation expenses are limited
to £5,000 any one accident. |

Total Disability:
This is for the very serious accident and one which would prevent
you from attending ANY business or occupation.
Important: If you have a highly specialised
occupation where perhaps a relatively minor but permanent
disability could cause the termination of this occupation, then we
would recommend a policy more specific to such needs.
Please call us for details.
Total Disability is a “lump sum” benefit.
If the insurers have however made payments for loss of weekly income
under this policy, the final sum paid will include a deduction of
payments made.
There is a “waiting period” of 12 months
unless medical examinations are able to conclusively concur that you
are beyond any recovery within this 12 month period. This benefit
does not include loss of eyes or limbs and we would recommend effecting
PARTIAL DISABILITY cover also. |

Partial Disability:
Where you have lost an eye or eyes and / or a limb or limbs, this
benefit will automatically pay you a proportion of the TOTAL DISABILITY
sum insured specified above. Click here to view the full scale of
compensation. |
