What Does Child Accident Insurance Cover? A Complete Guide for Parents
As a parent, your top priority is keeping your child safe and well protected. A child accident insurance policy is one of the most important types of coverage you can have — yet many parents are unsure what it actually covers and why it matters so much
In this guide, you’ll get a clear and simple overview of what a child accident insurance policy includes, what it doesn’t cover, and the added peace of mind you get when choosing a plan with us at Folkeforsikring.
Why Is Child Accident Insurance Important?
Even with good supervision, safe institutions, and attentive adults, accidents still happen. Children are active, curious, and love exploring the world — and sometimes things go wrong.
Child accident insurance ensures that your child receives financial and practical support if they experience an injury that results in permanent impairment or requires treatment.
What Does Child Accident Insurance Cover?
Here are the most important types of coverage a good child accident insurance policy should include — and which ours, of course, covers:
1. Coverage for Permanent Injuries
If your child sustains a serious injury from an accident (e.g., fractures, bone, or joint damage) that results in permanent impairment, a one-time compensation payment is provided.
This provides financial support for treatment, rehabilitation, and future needs.
2. Immediate Compensation (Quick Payout for Fractures)
If your child suffers, for example, a broken bone or a completely torn Achilles tendon/ACL, you receive a fast cash payout.
This provides additional financial support during a difficult time.
3. Dental and Tooth Injury Coverage
Many people don’t realize that dental injuries can become very costly.
Child accident insurance covers dental treatment after an accident — whether it occurs at school, during sports, or in leisure activities.
4. Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation
The insurance covers the costs of rehabilitation treatments that help your child return to their normal daily life more quickly.
What Sets Us Apart: Illness and Critical Illness Are Also Covered
This is what makes our child insurance especially strong and far better than many others on the market.
5. Coverage for Illness
If your child develops an illness that results in permanent impairment, they are also covered.
This is quite rare, as many companies only cover accidents.
6. Critical Illness
I får 100,000 DKK Payout, if the child is diagnosed with a critical illness.
This provides important financial security and the opportunity to:
-
Stay at home with your child
-
Cover additional expenses
-
Ensure peace of mind during a difficult time
In other words: With us, your child is not only covered for accidents but also medically protected against serious illnesses.
What Does Child Accident Insurance Not Cover?
For full transparency, a child accident insurance policy typically does not cover:
-
Routine Medical Visits
-
Cosmetic Treatments
-
Illnesses That Do Not Cause Permanent Impairment (with some exceptions in our coverage!)
