Accidents are inevitable and are part of our day-to-day lives from childhood to the golden ages.
While children are the most prone to accidents because of their lack of sense of danger, adults also often find themselves in serious accidents.
Falls account for the majority of non-fatal accidents among kids and adults. Other accidents can include road accidents, cuts, whips, and breakages, among others.
Some accidents can lead to serious injuries that can be costly to treat without a good personal accident cover.
This can equally place a financial strain on the victim’s family or lead to hospital detentions of a patient due to unpaid medical bills.
This call for financial backup should the unexpected happen, as hospital bills can add up to a hefty amount.

Jules Wako a beneficiary of the insurance facility says the product is a game-changer adding that he learned about it after almost losing his business in the aftermath of a road accident.
”I wish I knew Timiza earlier because I couldn’t have wasted my business money when I was involved in an accident that left me with a broken rib. The insurance cover would have sorted my medical bills and my business would be on another level,’’ he said.
