Frequently Asked Questions
If I change my occupation, will I still be covered?
Your life cover will remain intact if your new occupation is not eligible for PPS membership. No further increases can be made to the
cover. Your disability benefits may continue only if your new occupation is eligible for PPS membership.
How does the Immediate Needs Benefit work?
In the unfortunate event of death, bank accounts are typically frozen as part of the estate, often placing a financial burden on loved
ones to pay outstanding bills, funeral costs and daily expenses. This benefit pays up to R50 000, within 2 working days, on presentation
of a valid death certificate to PPS Insurance. Once the Immediate Needs Benefit pays your beneficiaries, the life cover is automatically
reduced and the balance is paid out once all the claim requirements are satisfied in accordance with the policy.
Why do I need PPS Professional Disability Provider™, if I already have PPS Sickness and Permanent Incapacity Benefit?
The two are not the same. PPS Professional Disability Provider™ pays out a cash lump-sum amount, to settle debt for example, whereas
the PPS Sickness and Permanent Incapacity Benefit pays out a regular amount based on the number of Units of Benefit you hold with PPS
Insurance, and the period you are unable to practise your profession, due to illness or injury.
