hello there.

just want to ask. I am in late 30s. Want to subscribe to medical card for retirement use only as now medical being covered by company I work now. Is it possible?
*
Is either get now or 55yo.

The risk you may want to carefully consider when subscribing during retirement:-
1. What if you have changed to a new company which didn't give any medical coverage and suddenly in need to use one?
2. What if diagnosed with some serious chronic disease e.g cancer, kidney failure. No longer able to get insured.
3. What if upon reaching 55yo and you found it too expensive some loadings and exclusion?

We can't calculate the risk of health when to fall sick or fall sick in the right time confused.gif

So get one while healthy is vital.

Tq [email=lifebalance]lifebalance[/email]. As long we declare everything honestly then no problem right.
But what will the company investigation based on?
Lets say the doctor said this cancer already must have for the past 1 year (which would be before i take this insurance), but just now only giving symptom. Can this affect?
Or is it better i do a full medical check up and keep it as prove.

Sorry asking so detail because as we all know cancer is a complicated b**ch.
This thing may not be detect during health screening and might only give effect after second stage like that.
*
As long as honestly declare then is fine but investigation still carry on to make sure there's non disclosure from Life Assure.

Case study: My colleague had 1 nose cancer claim after 1 year policy inforced. This client went and visited one nose specialist prior to the application. Although the visit was just to check the nose condition and nothing went wrong. Little thing like that please declared too. The claim was successfully payout.

Does anyone have experience on how to terminate insurance? Been with Zurich for 1 year and decided to change to AIA this month. Contacted my Zurich agent for termination last month, but response is too slow.

Can advise on how to terminate faster (to avoid more monthly contribution) and what is the common lead time for insurance company to terminate our insurance? More than 1 month?

Directly walk in to the HQ or branch.

Hi all, just curious. Do Malaysia have a medical card for Diabetes people? I am in the late 20s and got Type II. I Googled Prudential got medical card for Diabetic people but need to be above 40 years old? Allianz also got but the minimum entry age is 30 years old too, I read at Ringgit Plus
*
you are young, do look into your diet and lifestyle plan seriously. Diabetics can lead to many chronic diseases, this is the main reason many insurer do not offer medical card.

I was thinking, is it possible this way,
buy a new plan if can get one, which will most probably excludes all the diabetics related illness.
Use the old insurance limits to covers all medical related to the current illness only but use the limits from the new insurance to cover all others...
Doing this may helps increase the usage of the annual limits quota.
Hv to know what you will be hospitalised for in advance so that the right insurance will be used.

In the mean time, like lifebalance mentioned, Take care.
*
Unfortunately not possible, usually will upfront rejected by most of the insurers excepts some insurers who intend to cover the diabetics as mentioned in earlier post.

Practice good diet (vegan, keto diet) and healthier lifestyle may able to control the sugar level. take care.

Hi, this is my current ILP plan. (Pic Attached)
I'm thinking of increasing my Annual Limit on the Medical Card & adding Riders.

I'm speaking from a GE agent which i think i can give a better suggestion:-

1. If I wish to increase my Death/TPD or CI coverage, would it cost less to upgrade my current Rider or to buy a standalone Term Life Online Policy (until 80yrs coverage)?
2 different policies as term and ILP. More precise you need to do a cost of insurance comparison only can tell which one cheaper to go for instead of simply answer you.


2. Can I upgrade my current plan to the Smart Medic Million + Extender & upgrade my Riders, Without Underwriting again ?
You can upgrade it but MUST underwrite again.


3. Would it be better to collect my surrender value & change to Allianz Medisafe Infinite+, as it provides better additional benefits (20% NCB Discount & Traditional Medicine/2nd Opinion) OR should I just continue with Great Eastern because I've already paid the Agent's fee ?
You should continue with GE as u said paid for the commission and this SMX rider still a good medical plan, you just add in Smart Extender (SE), to make ur annual limit from RM144K to RM1.2mil annually. (get more advise from ur agent). By adding this SE, any admission still have SMX to go for.


4. A relative of mine has an AIA Excelife Whole Life Policy.
Is it possible to Withdraw the Cash Value & still maintain coverage by paying the premium annually ?
FYI, whole life has cash bonus not cash value (traditional plan). Yes, whole life can withdraw all the cash bonus and just pay the premium.
Cash value only for ILP plan. ILP only allow to withdraw certain amount of Cash Value but not all.



All research so far says No, however, an Insurance Agent, said Yes. I'm wondering if he's confused Whole Life with ILP ?
Apologies for so many questions.
She/ he definitely confused.

Thanks in advance, been researching Insurance for the past 3 days. I'm confident I can explain insurance policies better than 50% of Agents smile.gif

Can this be done without underwriting ? Doesn't the SE cause my coverage to have a deductible ? (Image 1)
Still need to go for underwriting, This SE will only comes in after ur SMX limit exhausted. The excess amount from SMX. E.g: total bill RM 200K, SMX will cover the 120K and SE will cover the remaining RM80K.

FYI, whole life has cash bonus not cash value (traditional plan).
This may be a Traditional Plan (purchased in 1992) (Image 2)
Am I right to believe that this policy will either:
A) Pay only the Face Value OR
B) Pay the Surrender Value
The original policy contract, to my understanding, states that it will pay out the Face Value / Surrender Value
OR may be converted into Fully Paid-up / Extended Term-Life

However ur image 2 is still SE rider explanation.

Am I right to believe that this policy will either:
A) Pay only the Face Value OR
B) Pay the Surrender Value
This right because surrender value can be higher than face value. So they will pay whichever is higher in traditional plan.

From 10 insurance companies?

I am looking for 2m life insurance that payable in 20 years term BD can cover up to 99 yo.

If those that can cover till 70yo, don't PM me

All plans cover till age 99 but Cash Value SUSTAINABILITY till age 99 is another matter should take into consideration. Meaning the cash value inside the account unable to sustain till age 99 then policy lapse or require to continue premium.

Need to ask expert here. I have this old insurance policy from GE- Supreme Living care 20 years ago. Since I have bought other policies with higher protection and thinking of terminate this policy. How to calculate how much i would get back? Surrender value only or surrender value + cash Bonus?
*
Surrender value + Cash bonus.

Btw, do a review with some one who know this policy well b4 terminate it. This old traditional policy yearly cash bonus might higher than ur premium. Why terminate if it is.

This issue I have heard of and none claimable on respective tax. I think u better voice it to ur agent and ask the company issue a letter to settle it.

My manager's has a similar case and settled it by request a letter from the insurance company.

What am I missing?

The smart protect is an ILP plan. Min to start this plan is Rm100/m. RM50/annum for 50k coverage? Are u referring the COI?

Great Eastern asks for family history on diabetes, hypertension, heart attack, stroke, cancer etc.

How does answering this question "yes" affect the policy? If people choose to answer "no" when there is some family history, what are the repercussions?
