How will the Dependants’ Protection Scheme claim benefits be distributed?
For claims under medical grounds, the Dependants’ Protection Scheme (DPS) benefits will be paid out to the insured member directly.
For death claims, if the insured member has made a DPS nomination, or has a will which is made known to the DPS insurer, the beneficiary(s) according to the nomination or will (whichever takes effect at the later date) will receive the benefits.
If no nomination or will is made, the benefits will be paid to proper claimant(s). A proper claimant can be the executor of the deceased's estate or family member, e.g. spouse, parent, child, or sibling.
For more details, please approach the appointed DPS insurer, Great Eastern Life.
