what i meant was, when i buy this AIA medical card, does it cover the first 4 months starting from the date i bought the policy?
coz great eastern does not cover the first 4 mths for the first time i buy the medical card, meaning for the 1st year, i pay for one year premium but the coverage starts only at the 5th month. its called 'waiving period' (not sure is it how it is spelled)
oh you mean waiting period.coz great eastern does not cover the first 4 mths for the first time i buy the medical card, meaning for the 1st year, i pay for one year premium but the coverage starts only at the 5th month. its called 'waiving period' (not sure is it how it is spelled)
ok for waiting period:
- 30 days for hospitalization or surgery due to all other illnesses
- 30 days for Out-patient Kidney Dialysis Treatment
- 60 days for Out-patient Cancer Treatment
- 120 days for treatment of surgery due to tonsils, adenoids, hernia or a disease related to
the female generative organs
- no waiting period for accident caused.
