I have two different statements from a few insurance agents about TPD and medical card.
Some agents ask me to get two policies:
Policy (1) with very high death/TPD payment
Policy (2) with very low death/TPD payment but with high medical coverage
The reason is, if i claimed TPD, I claim from Policy (1) so that my medical coverage will not be terminated. Policy (2) will run as normal with payor waiver until the day i die.
Some agents told me it doesn't matter. One policy is enough, eventhough if I claim TPD, my medical coverage will not be terminated with the payor waiver.
So, I am confused, which is correct.
The Policy 1 pays upon Death/TPD, and it does not affect whether your medical coverage will or will not be terminated. Some agents ask me to get two policies:
Policy (1) with very high death/TPD payment
Policy (2) with very low death/TPD payment but with high medical coverage
The reason is, if i claimed TPD, I claim from Policy (1) so that my medical coverage will not be terminated. Policy (2) will run as normal with payor waiver until the day i die.

The Policy 1 pays to you (or your named beneficiary upon death) so that you can have money to sustain your lifestyle in the event of a TPD. If you are TPD, and unable to work, who is going to pay for the bills, food, clothing, daily expenses?

The statement above is very misleading especially when it comes to waiver of premiums.
In the event of a waiver claim, the premium is waived, but the insurance charges for the medical card will keep increase as you grow older, therefore if there is not sufficient cash value in the policy to cover for the higher insurance charges, even if you are TPD, the policy will need to be 'top up' or risk having the policy to lapse.
