Cash back cover when you need it most

Our Cash Back Cover* from our Recover Cover range of recovery and life insurance products gives you cash to help with the costs of recovery you weren’t expecting like taxis to the doctor, extra rehab, hospital parking, babysitters or help if you need time off work.
