How to Compare Accident insurance
Just like any type of insurance, when it comes to finding accident insurance, you will want to find the cheapest option. This will mean shopping around and comparing the different companies. This can take some time and effort but it is generally worth it, as it could help you save money.
Do You Really Need the Insurance?
The first thing to look into is whether you really need to buy this type of insurance. Not everyone will need it, especially if your life insurance policy covers accidental death. This is something worth looking into. If you do not have any type of life insurance, it is also worth looking into buying this and finding a company that offers a policy with the accident insurance (we Danes call it Dækning ulykkesforsikring) attached to it. This could really help you save money and time!
The problem with this type of insurance is that it will only pay out for accidental death or injury. This is great if you spend a lot of time on the road and you are at more risk of a car accident but not great if there are risks of developing cancer or another terminal illness. Term or whole life insurance will cover death due to illness.
Use Comparison Websites
Instead of going from company to company, it is often best to go to a price comparison website. While not all insurance companies will be on here, the majority are so you will be able to save time comparing quotes. The best thing is that you will only need to put your details into the form once and you will get quotes from a multitude of companies.
Do Not Just Compare Price
You cannot just look at the cheapest insurance company (forsikringsselskab is the way we Danes call it) and choose them. The problem is that you may not get all of the cover that you need. It is often worth looking into the details of the policy to find something that will suit your needs exactly. This is especially the case if you are involved in high risk activities, such as parachuting or rock climbing.
If you cannot find this information on the price comparison websites, take the time to go directly to the company websites and look into their policy terms. You may find that you need to pay a little more but that you gain accident insurance that will cover you for these high risk activities – and that extra money is generally worth the reassurance.
It is important to compare the different companies to find the best type of accident insurance for you. The cost will depend on a number of factors, such as how often you have claimed for an accident in the past and your age. You will not need a medical exam but you may find that your age stops you from being able to take out a policy – this is something that you should look into in detail beforehand. Accident insurance can really help with peace of mind for you and your family to make sure you are covered in the event of an accident but it may not be something you need, so check that first!
