Jubin Mehta, Chief Executive Officer of Tune Protect Malaysia said,
“The current Malaysian economic climate is causing financial burnout on the working population. The increasing cost of living and escalating medical cost are not mirrored in the standard of living, where individuals are prone to health issues and illnesses.
The rising costs of healthcare facilities and result-oriented working lifestyles implies negligence on health. With Critical Safe+, customers can customise their insurance plan based on their budget and obtain the necessary financial protection against these critical illnesses. Leveraging on digital, we hope to expedite customers insurance journey and appeal to the millennials and zillennials.”
