An 18-month waiting period (Moratorium) applies to the pregnancy benefit, which means you’ll need to be covered by us continuously for this length of time before you can claim for it.
If you’d like this benefit included in your business health insurance, the waiting period is 10 months before your employees can claim for pregnancy.
