double jeopardy
Posted on Apr 30, 2010 under blahs, my thoughts with infos |A colleague of mine got into a motorcycle accident early this month. He is ok but he has to be out of work for a year until his right leg has fully recovered, the impact of his injury. As i understood, the operation he underwent wasn’t part of the insurance coverage (or at least not fully covered) we have at work. Meaning he has to shell out his own money. It’s as if it’s not enough to deal with the physical pain alone.
What happened to him left me thinking. Can we really depend on our company insurance should there be any untoward accident that may happen to us? I have to check out some life insurance rate because i think it’s crucial that we have something or our loved ones can hang on to. We can never tell what happens tomorrow. Professional fees from specialists are not also covered should we want to have a particular checkup. Really not that helpful, but as others would have it, it’s better than not to having any insurance at all.
