Racers insurance? Does it exist?

[steve74]

He guys, after spending the best part of 3 months off work from shoulder surgury after a moto x get off with a policy that covers me for everything but motor racing, does anyone know of any companys that do cover racers.
I did some searching and found a company called combined insurance? any suggestions?

They do a lump sum payout depending on the injury and the level of cover you decide, they cover you while racing and in the two claims I've had they have settled the claims promptly and with no argument

The only drawback is they come around every 6 moths trying to sell you more stuff

well worth having IMO

I have had Combined insurance for over 15 years and have made several claims over this time , most of my claims have been paid very quickly with low resistance.

Highly recommend

I still have a Combined Insurance accident policy that my parents took out for me 15 odd years ago.

Since I have started working I have never had to claim but when we did when I was younger there was never an issue with the payout.

I have had combined for years! Used it heaps! I got $4500 just for breaking ligament in my hand at the start of the year

Whats the best plan to get?
Hospital or Disability?

Since moving back to OZ, I miss ACC....

[scracha]

I use combined. Anyone got any thoughts on ACC Coverplus Extra?

[Shaun Harris]

COMBINED is the best, They helped keep my family alive with the pay out I recieved

i have had combined for nearly 10 years now, and have been paid out well over $10,000 from them, very good insurance, but they do always try to upsell you every 4 months or so,

Excuse my naivety - is this medical insurance or loss of income insurance? Doesn't ACC cover us?

[scott411]

acc does cover you for medical expenses, and for loss of income,

combined is a good back up, they have different packages but pay per day you are in hospital, and for broken bones etc,

when combined with ACC you can make pre tty good money in hospital,

Think I read somewhere once that the MNZ license fee or race entry fees or something like that included top up insurance??? What's all that about???

[scott411]

the MNZ insurance that is part of the licence is for death only, from memory it is a 15K payout,

Bugger that, my kids ignore me now and think I'm only good for giving them money, my favorite lament is, "you'll miss me when I'm gone" but if they got 15 grand to play with they wouldn't even do that !!!
