Any reason you would like to do so?

I've explained thoroughly in another thread. Basically, whole life insurance does not fit my need. I'll be replacing it with term life insurance.
I just want to know if it's possible or not, that's all. No need to persuade me to change my mind. tongue.gif

1. standalone medical card that bought 5 year ago
which come with 100k lifetime limit
premium is more cheaper than current medical card.

how about in future? will the gap increase where year 2017 medical card will keep only increase while the old card increase is slower?

what ur advice to keep the old card or to buy another current card?
*
1. Please reconfirm it is Rm100k Lifetime Limit?

2. How much is the annual limit?

3. Until what age does the standalone medical card covers? Age 70, age 80?

These are also important info before looking at what can be offered

Hi

when it comes to critical illness, it will depends on the severity, normally if it's moderate or high, chances of applying for insurance will be rejected, especially for cases like Cancer.

However if you feel that the critical illness severity is minor, you may still submit your application for the underwriter to consider your application.

Thanks Keith. Appreciated it.

AIA and GE agents, need your clarification..

Do your company's MEDICAL CARD covers take home drugs, examination and consultation for out-patient kidney dialysis and cancer treatment??

For Allianz, I notice it's clearly stated on their brochures..

What about for AIA and GE?? HLA?

What about GE? GE agent pls come in

yes for GE it is included as well. stated in policy contract document.

For AIA, is it possible to restructure my whole life insurance with riders, so that the riders become standalone, and then I cancel my whole life insurance? Or do I need to create a separate policy and then let my original policy lapse?  hmm.gif
*
u can remove the riders no problem.

If the cost difference to get RM1.1 mil coverage is not a lot then get the RM1.1 mil instead.

When you mention lifetime limit, I assume you're referring to the annual limit right ?

Because lifetime limit means throughout your lifetime, you can only claim up to RM1.1 mil and the card will cease.

If it's yearly limit RM1.1 mil then you can entitle to claim RM1.1 mil yearly.

with medical cost inflation of 10% - 15% per annum.

Treatment cost
a. RM100,000 (2017) -----> RM259,374 (2027) ----> RM672,749 (2037)

b. RM200,000 (2017) -----> RM518,748 (2027) ----> RM1,345,499 (2037)

The figure above is estimated, when you have a higher annual limit card itself, you can rest assure that you don't have to worry about your medication cost for atleast another 20 years.

so, in that case, 100k annual limit is just enough for current year.
to cater for future it is better for us to adopt the 1.1m annual limit instate..?

Of course, there are a few consideration you have to consider as well such as insurability.

Whether can you still get to upgrade your medical card in the future if you don't choose to do so now.

What can cause you not to be able to upgrade or buy another insurance ?
- Health problem such as pre-existing illness or overweight / underweight problem

My own opinion.
1. Are the minister story are true and not by political move?
2. Many medicine and item price are not regulate by health minister, hospital decide on price
3. Patient didn't check hospital billing as all paid in insure, might have wrong billing and jack up overall medical cost

What you guys think?

*All insurance company are heavily monitored by bank negara, for such issue shouldn't be asking on bank negara first?

Hi all,

I am in a little bit of a predicament. I recently been checking on my fathers properties and it seems he hasn't purchased any life insurance for the loans he has taken. He is the sole breadwinner of the family and it worries me if anything happens to him.

He is currently 65 years old and is a business owner. Does not smoke.

I estimate the loan he has taken is about in excess of RM2 million.

Would like to know my options with term life insurance.

Thanks...

Hi,

seems like that's a huge red light if something happens and if he passes away, the property will not be able to pass down to the next of kin without paying off the debts.

The insurance premium is not going to be cheap at his age too since he's 65 and hopefully his health is still doing well as he will be subject to medical check up for buying 2 mil insurance as well as also age.

Indeed, hence I would like to know if going with a term insurance or investment link would make sense?

At his age is there any difference in premium? Medical check up is not an issue.

ILP is cheaper than term insurance for his age
