LIA rolls out changes to Critical Illnesses benefit framework

It’s a response to Singapore’s greying population.

Following a one-year review, the Life Insurance Association Singapore (LIA Singapore) today revealed changes to the Critical Illnesses (CI) benefit framework aimed at providing consumers in Singapore with more varied CI products.

The revised guidelines offers flexibility for more medical conditions to be covered, as well as revised standard definitions for the severe stage of 37 common CIs.

According to Dr. Khoo Kah Siang, President of LIA, “ This is especially important given the changing demographics of our community, medical advancements and expectations of today’s society. Making refinements to the critical illness benefit framework is one of numerous initiatives undertaken by the life insurance industry aimed at providing protection for the well-being of individuals over their lifetime,”

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
