Domestic helper insurance?

[dingdongding]

Hi all, I am wondering which domestic helper insurance do you buy for your helper? and how much does it cost? Do you also buy the additional coverage for serious illness such as cancer and heart disease?

I looked at some (HL, HSBC, QBE) and the costs varies from $660 to $1600 for 2 years.

I am new in hiring and would really appreciate the information you share.

I use AXA, which was arranged through Kwiksure. I took out a two year policy and it cost $1200. So far, I have had no problems with claims submitted and I have been reimbursed in full each time.

We use Hong Leong (formerly Dao Heng). The first two years was about 660, and upon renewal, they upped it to close to $900 for 2 more years (less than $450 per year), which I thought was still quite reasonable. Here's a link to their site. http://www.hl-insurance.com/en/promotion.asp?category=domestichelper

We did ours through HSBC.
