It is now possible to claim on personal insurance coverage for
the cost of visiting clinics — under a new medical rider launched by Prudential
Assurance Malaysia Bhd last month.
This claim is possible only if the
applicant already has a life insurance policy with Prudential
Malaysia.
Also, the claim is only allowed if the applicant goes to any of
the about 2,200 general practitioner clinics signed up with Prudential
Malaysia.
This new medical rider, called PRUclinic care, is offered to
its policyholders aged between one and 60 and will cover RM1,500 worth of
clinical treatments annually for a two-year benefit term.
Chief marketing
officer Fiona Liao said in a statement the PRUclinic care rider is available
with premiums starting from RM188 a year and involves the issue of a cashless
card that will be recognised at its panel clinics.
She said the new offer
ensures the healthcare needs, especially for young families, are
covered.
“More and more people are feeling the financial pinch from
visiting their local clinic due to the escalating cost of medicine and
consultation fee, which is why we created PRUclinic care.
“Besides
families, it is suitable for self employed individuals and even small and medium
enterprises who wish to offer medical coverage to their
employees.”
PRUclinic care can be purchased together with PAMB’s PRUlink
one, PRUlife ready and PRUmy child investment-linked insurance plans.
