Below
are the answers to questions that you may have regarding this decision
Why are you no longer offering StemCellCare
insurance?
We
have decided to withdraw from the market due to lack of demand and it is no
longer economically viable to continue to offer the product
Is there anywhere else I can purchase cover?
We
are not aware of any other providers that offer the same insurance product. If
you have private medical insurance, you may wish to contact your insurer to
determine if they provide any cover or consult with the Biobank where you
stored your cells
What will happen to the cells I stored?
The
discontinuation of this insurance does not affect the storage of your cells in
any way. Your cells are stored on a completely separate contract with your
Biobank
Is my current policy still valid?
Yes,
your current policy will continue to be valid until its expiry
Can I make a claim on my existing policy?
Your
right to make a claim under your current policy is unaffected. Provided a
diagnosis is made for a covered medical condition within the period of
insurance, and the independent panel of medical experts agree that this form of
treatment is appropriate, you can still make a claim.
Full
details of how to make a claim, as well as the terms and conditions of the
policy, can be found in your policy wording, which was issued to you when you
purchased the cover
