Compare before purchase, save more than HK$34,000

Although the VHIS’s premiums will adjust according to the age of the Insured Person, they will not increase due to their health conditions. This means that even if they develop an illness, the insurance company will not increase the premiums for subsequent years.

Comparing prices before purchase can help you save more!

Given that the VHIS with the highest premiums in Hong Kong will cost a 30-years-old non-smoking male a total of HK$53,244, insuring with Bowtie’s standard VHIS will only cost him a total premiums of HK$19,200 for the next 10 years for the same annual hospitalization coverage of HK$420,000. The difference in premiums for the same coverage is more than HK$34,000!

Comparing the premiums of different insurance companies may sound overwhelming, but in fact, information like the latest premiums are clearly stated on the official VHIS website of the Health Bureau which you can always easily get accessed to.

  • Note:Renewal till February 14, 2023, the above referenced prices are standard premiums for non-smoking individuals for the standard VHIS at specified age. For accurate quotes and product details, please consult with the respective insurance companies.

If you have a limited budget, and still do not hold a personal medical insurance yet, you may consider purchasing with a standard VHIS first.

If you are already protected by other personal medical insurances or group medical insurances,, but still worry about insufficient protection, Bowtie recommends purchasing Bowtie Pink VHIS (High-end medical insurance).

It provides more comprehensive protection and can act as a complementary and non-overlapping health insurance of your existing medical insurances with a highest annual benefit limit of HK$10 million.

For example, a 30-year-old non-smoking man could enjoy premiums as low as HK$257-728#.

Still unsure about how to choose or want to learn about other medical insurance options?
