The ZB Hospital Cash Plan is a policy that provides protection against unexpected costs and loss of income as a result of hospitalization of a policyholder or his/her chosen dependents aged one year to 64 years.

The hospital cash plan also provides life cover on the death of a policyholder equal to premiums for all registered dependents, for the lesser of two years or the remainder of the policy term.

Policyholders can select any policy term, subject to a minimum of 5 years. Cover for child dependents ceases at 23 years, while that for a policyholder and adult dependents cannot go beyond 75 years. A waiting period of three months will apply before benefits can be paid. Cover will continue for as long as premiums are paid.

Rest assured that hospitalization will not affect your income and expenses.

  • A daily cash payment is made available for each day spent in hospital when an insured person is hospitalized for more than 48 hours
  • If a policyholder suffers disability and is unable to perform any occupation, remaining premiums for all insured persons will be paid by the Company
  • Policyholders can select any policy term, subject to a minimum of 5 years
