Introduction

This article explains the Reinstatement of policies process in instances where a Sirago policy has been terminated and the policy holder requests a reinstatement of a cancelled policy within the specified time frame. 

 

Summary of the grace period for Reinstatements

If the policy owner requests a reinstatement of a cancelled policy, this will only be considered at the Insurer’s discretion and requires a signed health declaration document in support of the request. 

 

Window Period
