Moratorium period exclusion: 90 day exclusion for cancer and benign brain tumour
The 90-day exclusion period refers to the first 90 days the contract is in force or the first 90 days after reinstatement. If, within this period, you, as the insured person are diagnosed with any cancer or benign brain tumour, or have signs or symptoms that lead to a diagnosis of cancer or benign brain tumour at any time, you will not be eligible to receive the Critical Illness Benefit or Early Detection Benefit for the diagnosis of cancer or benign brain tumour or a covered condition directly resulting from or the treatment from any cancer or benign brain tumour while the policy is in force.
In this exclusion, the term “any cancer” includes all cancers and benign brain tumour, even if you would not have been covered under the definitions of cancer for a Critical Illness Covered Condition or an Early Detection Covered Condition.
The information about signs, symptoms, investigations and Diagnosis as described above must be provided to us in writing within six (6) months of the date of Diagnosis. If the information is not provided during this period, we have the right to deny any claim for a Critical Illness Benefit or an Early Detection benefit for any cancer or any Critical Illness Covered Condition or Early Detection Covered Condition caused by any cancer, benign brain tumour or its treatment.
