Bai,
I m not an agent either..i also a consumer..before i took any protection plan..I did make comparison with other plans bcoz i wanna the get a policy with best value of money..I did argue with my agent..but he managed to answer in a right way..
As co-insurance is concerned, that is bank negara requirement to imposed at any medical bil..depends la sama ada that insurance co. nak absorbed ke tak..like some bancassurance, ada co-insurance 50:50, 50% bank tanggung, 50% polisi holder tanggung..
Ada juga yg bila medical bil, eg. more than certain amount, then baru imposed co-insuran..Some insurance co absorbed co-insurance, eg. MAA, thats y u will noticed..dia limit kan plak coverage utk cancer & dialysis (eg. RM20K)..Insurance co. also very smart like us
Obvious reason, ppl previously misabused the benefits..demam sket aje dok hospital..sakit sket je dok hospital..pastu nak claim hospital elaun lah..MC elaun lah..this & that..To protect this, co-insurance ni pun start la di kenakan pd new polisi holder..
Bank Negara pun nak protect syarikat insuran gak drp bankrupt..
Like existing policy holder which before the co-insurance di wajibkan oleh bank negara few years ago, yg ni tak imposed kat diorg pun..They can still enjoyed medical coverage without any co-insurance...Like bapak aku, amik plan Prudential 7 thn lepas, dia tak kene co-insurance langsung pun..
Lg pun, kalau biasa dah kene diagnosed dgn cancer or kidney failure..dah dpt dah lump sum duit kritikal illness paling busuk pun RM50K..guna je la duit tu, utk byr co-insurance..thats y, Rm4.2K better than paying RM42K..
Personally, kalau that guy willing to take bigger plan RM100,000 obviously la mamat ni org VIP..takat RM10,000 is nothing la kot..i believe his premium silap2 sebulan equal dgn aku punya premium sebulan
Comparison is good..jgn sampai ko tak amik langsung..
Kalau nak paling best, ko amik Great Eastern..cover sampai 100 years!!! Itu pun kalau ko mampu la bayar premium dia..
Aku amik ikut kemampuan n keperluan..Setiap org beza keperluannya, Azizi Ali pun amik term insuran aje, maybe sbb takat medical bil tu dia bole cover lg...
masing2 punya cite rase..
