Compensation after a specific number of days
In order to be able to be compensated, at least 180 days must have elapsed between taking out the insurance and the day when the diagnosis is made.
This qualifying period does not apply if, within 90 days from withdrawing from our Illness and Survivor Insurance, you change over to Ailment 60+.
You have a right to compensation when 30 days have elapsed after the diagnosis is established.
If you become ill again
If you have already received compensation for a diagnosis, special rules apply should you be unfortunate enough to be afflicted again:
- Compensation can be paid for a maximum of three different diagnoses.
- You cannot receive compensation for the same diagnosis more than once.
How much compensation can I get in money?
The extent of the compensation depends on your (group member’s) age. If you are under 70, you receive SEK 40,000. If you are between 70 and 74, you receive SEK 34,000 and, if you are between 75 and 85, you receive SEK 27,000. It is up to you what you want to do with the money.
These diagnoses are covered by Ailment 60+
The diagnosis must be determined no later than the month in which you reach 85 as a group member. You cannot receive compensation for a diagnosis you already had when the insurance was taken out.
