French Prudential Supervisory Authority.”
“In the Indigo Expat Core Plans, Palliative care and long term care has been split into two separate benefits, Palliative care and Long term care, and cover has been extended on both. Palliative care now provides a full refund benefit limit with no maximum number of days. Previously full refund up to 30 days.
