No Lifetime Benefit Limit and Deductible³

This plan provides three different benefit levels without lifetime benefit limit and deductible³. The annual benefit limit ranges from HKD 500,000 to HKD 700,000^*(according to your choice of benefit level). You can choose the most suitable medical protection level to meet your personal needs and prepare the best possible medical solution for you and your loved ones.

^* Major medical benefit is an additional benefit and not included in the annual benefit limit. Please contact your financial consultant for the details of benefit limit in US dollars.

Guaranteed Renewal up to Age 100

Individuals aged between 15 days and age 80 are eligible to apply for this plan. Moreover, regardless of your health conditions in the future, the plan guarantees renewal until age 100. Renewal premium will not be increased according to insured person’s age after attaining age 70 which commits to provide a lifelong medical protection.

All-round Cancer Treatment Protection

Many suffers from cancer without preparation especially at a much younger age and their lives undergo unprecedented changes. In addition to the coverage for surgical cancer treatments, the plan also covers expenses for non-surgical cancer treatments during confinement or at outpatient centres, including radiotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy and hormonal therapy. We believe getting appropriate treatments will lead to better chances of recovery.

Covering Prescribed Diagnostic Imaging Tests

The plan offers coverage to the insured person for expenses of prescribed diagnostic imaging test incurred during confinement or at outpatient centres, including computed tomography ("CT"scan), magnetic resonance imaging ("MRI" scan), positron emission tomography ("PET" scan), etc.

Major Medical Benefit

Worrying about excess expenses that exceed benefit limits while getting medical treatments could be a huge burden for the patients. The plan provides major medical benefit (20% coinsurance) which is additional benefit beyond the basic benefit for each policy year and not included in the annual benefit limit. It helps you recuperate from illness with greater ease and peace. Please refer to the Benefit Schedule for details about the major medical benefit of respective benefit levels.

Covering Unknown Pre-existing Conditions

To give you an extra peace of mind, the plan covers unknown pre-existing conditions of which you were not aware and would not reasonably have been aware at the time of application. The coverage also extends to congenital conditions which have manifested or been diagnosed after the insured person has attained age 8 or after.

Tax Deduction for Extra Financial Ease

If you⁴ or your family members⁵ enrol in the plan, the eligible premiums paid⁶ for the plan will be allowed for tax deduction each year. The ceiling for annual deduction per insured person is HKD8,000, and there is no cap on the number of family members⁵ that are eligible for tax deduction. You can, therefore, prepare the suitable medical protection for your loved ones with more affordable premiums through tax deduction.

Upfront No-Claim Discount for Successful Applications

We offer no-claim discount to encourage you a healthy lifestyle. Unlike similar plans in the market, the plan provides an annual premium discount up to maximum 16%^# immediately following successful new application until the first claim is made. Then an 8% discount is provided in the policy year following a claim, while a 0% discount applies to the policy years thereafter. If no claim is made for three consecutive policy years, the rate of no-claim discount will revert to 16%.

#Medical services performed during day case procedure will NOT affect the no-claim discount.

Compassionate Death Benefit as Extra Care to Your Loved Ones

In the unfortunate event of the insured person’s death, a maximum of HKD 30,000 as compassionate death benefit will be paid to the beneficiary. If, after the insured person’s death, a major organ of the insured person is donated and transplanted legally, an additional compensation up to HKD 30,000² will be paid.
