Hospital bill Rm50k
Company ins Rm30k
Personal ins Rm100k

Method 1
Claim from company ins Rm30k using Guarantee Letter & upon discharge you pay need to pay Rm20k in cash as settlement to the hospital.

Using the Rm20k original receipt + discharge summary to claim from personal insurance.

Method 2
You use your personal medical card for Rm50k.

You cannot claim any further from your company insurance anymore as Rm50k has been settled by your personal insurance.

Ps. The insurer will not give you back the original receipt once it has been submitted for a claim as it will mean there, unless you do not want to claim anything from the insurer.

Thanks sir for the feedback, appreciated. thumbup.gif

Never know that if the total bill was RM50k and it can be separated to RM30k bill (for company ins cashless medical card claim) + RM20k bill (cash paid by insured).

Hi all, thinking to get my first personal medical insurance as currently I only have the company benefits' one. Anyone have any good recommendation of product or is there any agent here that can PM me?

I'm mostly keen on non ILP-linked medical insurance (traditional type), but I'm open to suggestions. Thanks in advance!

Combo AXA SmartCare Optimum + Tokio Marine Medic Plus.

Good for you if you already have company group medical benefit, you may choose deductible option for AXA SCO (up to 50% discount on premium for RM20k deductible) + TM medic plus for additional coverage on kidney + cancer treatment. both are yearly renewable medical card.

http://www.tokiomarine.com/my/en/personal/...medic-plus.html

** you can get extra 15% discount if you walk into their branches for initial premium payment.

hmm.gif Interesting, I was offered similar product also from AIA. Not sure if it's worth to take it up as I currently do not own any personal medical insurance, and are only having company's group medical benefit.

Yup my company group plan is under AIA.

Is it OK compared to, say, the tokio marine you shared earlier? The TM ones looks like similar benefits but cheaper as age grows hmm.gif

yeah because TM's deductible is RM10k, and the AIA's is RM30k. once you passed age of 60, there won't be deductible option for you hence the premium increases.

TM deductible plan is fixed at RM10k for all plans,
and AIA's deductible plan is fixed at respective plan.

Try AXA SCO, you can adjust your deductible amount, from RM7.5k to RM20k for each plan. if you are concerned that

2)You are taking the deductible risk.
3)Deductible plan might not too suitable for retirement purpose when you are retired without company medical coverage.
4)It's extremely hard for you to get a standard medical card if you are planning to get on your retirement which is age 55.
5)If you are able to get one, high blood pressure/ blood sugar/ cholesterol might made you paying 100% or higher premium rate than normal person. Example: If a healthy age 55 person are paying RM300/month, you might be paying RM600/month due to loading.


you can always look for AXA SCO because their deductible plan can be converted to non-deductible plan once in a life time by age of 59. the Insured Person
will not be required to provide health declaration to the Company.

and the last thing, i'm a consumer. i'm not a insurance salesman.

The concept is still the same.

If you're on a budget and don't have a choice, get those with deductible, atleast part of the risk is covered.

However, if you can afford a full plan with no co-insurance today with a better benefit. Why not ?

Is it worth saving a few extra ringgit worth the long run ?
*
it is definitely worth it if u know how to manage your own money, financial planning.

if i have company medical benefit, why not i choose a deductible option plan to complement it? it saves alot. if i decide to change job, and the new company doesn't provide any medical benefit, i can convert the deductible plan to a full plan (AXA SCO).

If you have RM500 to invest on insurance ( include medical card, 36 critical illness).
Would you put all in 1 insurance company or split to 2 company (250 each)?

Can we claim daily cash allowance from both insurance company if got 2 medical card?
*
insurance 101.
insurance is meant to be protection, not investment.

better focus in 1 insurance company (easier management), but if u want to use the 2nd plan to complement the 1st plan, it works as well.
about the daily cash allowance, should be able to claim from 1 insurance company iianm. pls correct me if i was wrong. biggrin.gif
