Enhanced Inpatient and Day Case Procedure benefits – include psychiatric treatment
- Psychiatric treatment (requires written referral by a registered medical practitioner) is covered up to a limit of 80% of eligible charges. Due to the pandemic, all walks of life have been hugely affected, employees are therefore under great pressure. However, psychiatric treatment has always been an excluded item of insurance, we hope that this upgrade can take good care of the physical and mental health of employees for our customers.
Uplifted maximum insurable age of Members / Spouse to 75
- Uplifted maximum insurable age of Members / Spouse from 65 to 75 (depending on individual cases, 70 – 75 year-old insured might require separate review). We’ve listened to our customer feedback that some employees or their spouses are unable to enjoy the company’s medical insurance due to age limitation. In view of this, we decided to further expand the scope of insurance and become the solid backing for employees and their spouses, enabling them to enjoy life without any worries.
Relaxed children of the enrolled members to the age of 25
- Relaxed children of the enrolled members from the age of 18 to 25 (Children of the enrolled members between the age of 18 and 25 must be a full-time student with valid proof provided). We understand that employees are always worried about their children, hope that through this initiative, we can reduce the burden on employees for our customers as well as protecting the future pillars of Hong Kong.
Added waiting period for the “Pre-existing Condition(s)” exclusion
- Added a one-year waiting period for existing Bowtie corporate medical insurance policyholders – If the Insured Person has been insured under this Plan continuously for one year, Pre-existing Conditions will be covered. If you are covered under another group medical insurance packaged plan of another insurance company immediately before the Policy Issuance Date or the Policy Effective Date, whichever is the earlier, there will be no waiting period. We believe that even if the insured has relevant medical records, they are entitled to enjoy the company’s medical benefits. We hope that this upgrade will allow more employees to benefit from group medical insurance.
