TEAM® is an employer-funded insurance product without medical underwriting. Structured as a true group policy, risk is assessed across the entire workforce, or a defined subgroup of 20+ individuals as requested (e.g. all company managers). In contrast to regular individual and collective policies, no health check is required for insurance coverage up to the individual automatic acceptance limit, within which acceptance of the members is automatic.

We provide insurance cover within the automatic acceptance limit of up to:

10 x
