You and healthcare reform 
12/17/2010 
Many people are thinking of acquiring maximum coverage with the lowest possible budget as the second phase of public consultation on healthcare reform in Hong Kong is in full swing. While looking forward to a prosperous future, we may easily overlook our need for an urgent and immediate coverage.

Will you take out an insurance plan now and obtain instant coverage or wait for a long-term policy which is full of uncertainties? As your health may deteriorate with age, your application for medical insurance may well be rejected in the future if you do not enroll now. Even though those individuals deemed to be in the high-risk category may be covered under future medical and health insurance schemes, they are bound to pay considerable premiums. Worse still, they may not be able to enjoy any coverage during a certain period of time.

Medical and healthcare coverage is indeed an urgent concern for every citizen in Hong Kong, especially when concrete arrangement following the implementation of healthcare coverage reform remains uncertain.

      or 65) without any underwriting

4.   Senior Hospitalization Major Medical coverage for seniors aged 75 or above
      who need more coverage – 80% reimbursement in excess of the
      prescribed basic 
hospital and surgical limits 1, up to the Senior
      Hospitalization Major Medical limit

5.   Level Premiums* help you save premiums in your golden years

6.   Money back option on surrender or maturity regardless of claims history –
      for emergency cash

7.   24 hours international medical assistance when traveling

10. Optional Outpatient Benefit – access a wide network of clinics for

* Level premiums will not increase with attained age every year, but are not
   guaranteed. Premiums may increase to reflect any change in the
cost of
   claims and any change in experience, which includes claim
experience, cost of
   supplying medical care, etc.

In addition to the above optional coverages, you also have the option to increase 2 and reduce coverage between benefit levels (Diamond, Gold, Silver, Bronze) and optional hospitalization coverages over time as your needs change.

Take action now. Access to insurance cover gets more difficult as you age. For level premium plans, the earlier you start, the more you save. Please contact us for details.
