AIG Critical illness
AIG provide a range of definitions that cover the impact of illness on a person’s life without naming specific conditions (i.e. the cause). This enables them to cover a wider range of conditions without the need for multiple complicated wordings. Add to this children’s cover that doesn’t just imitate the adult cover but is designed to cover the conditions likely to severely impact a child’s life and you have a well rounded proposition.
