How old are you?

60k definately not enough.... People is aiming for 500k, 1 mill or so.
Premium like 300-400 per month, depending on your age.

500k CI coverage?

premium will choke die you once you pass 50 years old, when CI coverage really matter

well...yes perspective is age.
me heading to 50 already. purchase it when i was in my mid 20, and add another one in my early 30. So pay around Rm 500 for these ( include life insurance, and bundle with some investment)
Last time is like tat la, always mix with investment- promise decent return and such. but looking back- the return is really crap- 2% or so. that is where insurance company make their money.

Eh- the premium does not goes up as you aged. basically the younger you start buying- the cheaper it is per month ( but it add up over the years la, coz longer duration paying). Yes- we know they can increase the price with bank negara approval- but so far under control.
Anyway- moving forward- realized hospitalization is more important- with medical fees keep going up - so added an insurance coverage for medical 2 years back.
it was suppose to be Rm 400 or so for 1 million cap per year until 85 years old. - but based on medical report got some minor issue with my liver > end up need to pay around Rm 600 or so.
in short= i pay monthly Rm 1k+ per month. For a peace of mind.

how much and what to buy... really depends on your age and economy condition. Dont over stretch it.

if you purchase it early, ayam would suggest you check back the insurance's sustainability since fund performance is garbage grade. I wonder if they hire monkey as their fund manager. need to keep a eye on the cash values of your policy, if run into negative, your policy will lapse

ayam would chop that CI and purchase more on life / accident combo

i think mine doesn't give me lump sum unless i die of critical illness which is around 200k, i think.
my medical card pay for my critical illness treatment up to 1M (not sure if it refresh every year, need to check)

so it is life 200k plus medical card lo

anyway CI got catch one, some is only payable for end stage illness like cancer, and there is survival period after diagnosis which is from 7 days to 30 days.

i am not sure if your medical card pay for your cancer treatment. U better check.

for inpatient treatment, all is covered lol unless it is pre-existing condition

for outpatient treatment then need to be careful as not all medical card cover for cancer outpatient treatment

for some case, chemo therapy can be counted as outpatient treatment since you are not admitted during treatment
