HOW MUCH PREMIUM DO I NEED TO PAY?
The premium that you pay for a PRUhealth plan is determined by your age, occupation class, plan type and coinsurance / deductible option chosen, subject to underwriting. The premiums are payable throughout the duration of the plan.
PREMIUM PAYMENT
Premiums can be paid yearly, half-yearly, quarterly or monthly via Auto Debit, Credit Card, Cash or Cheque.
HOW DOES PRUhealth PAY FOR OVERSEAS MEDICAL TREATMENT VERSUS PRUmedic overseas?
If you receive medical treatment overseas under your PRUhealth plan, the benefits are paid according to the costs of treatment that would be reasonably charged by a hospital in Malaysia. No benefit is paid if you reside overseas for more than 90 days per trip.
However, the 90 days restriction on overseas residence will not be applicable to PRUmedic overseas when attached to your PRUhealth plan. Reimbursement of medical expenses shall also be based on the reasonable and customary charges of the country of treatment.
This plan is for people aged between 1 – 70 years old next birthday who want a plan that takes care of their medical expenses AND rewards them for staying healthy.
With additional premium and underwriting, you can now enhance the coverage of your PRUhealth plan with:
a) PRUannual limit waiver – the rider plan that allows you to make claims higher than your annual limit by waiving the annual limit of your PRUhealth plan. This will ensure that you are safeguarded against any unexpected large medical claims within a policy year. PRUannual limit waiver can only be attached toPRUhealth 200, 300 and 400 plans (subject to additional premium). When PRUannual limit waiver is attached, claim amounts exceeding the annual limit will be subjected to a coinsurance amount of 10% on total claims (excluding cost of daily room & board).
b) PRUmedic overseas - have the option to seek overseas medical treatment or advice in China, Hong Kong or Singapore for the following covered conditions:
• Surgery related to cancer
• Neurosurgery
• Coronary artery bypass surgery
• Heart valve surgery
• Organ transplant (kidney, lung, liver, heart, pancreas and bone marrow transplant)
In the event of a covered condition, if you choose to be hospitalised and undergo surgery in Malaysia instead of overseas due to reasons such as family or immobility, a Well-Being Benefit will be payable per admission for every surgery. Policyholders who claim Well-Being Benefit are no longer eligible to reimburse claims for Hospital & Surgical Benefits and Out-patient Treatment Benefits for that particular covered condition. Instead, you may claim Well-Being Benefit for multiple admissions for surgery on covered conditions in Malaysia, and claim for local medical treatment under PRUhealth based on reasonable and customary charges.

c) PRUmedic auto upgrade – with this benefit, our customers will have their PRUhealth plan automatically upgraded. On the 5th and 10th rider benefit anniversary, the PRUhealth plan will move up to the next higher plan following the table below:

d) PRUmedic retirement - your PRUhealth plan with deductible option will be switched automatically to coinsurance option when you retire at age 55 years next birthday with PRUmedic retirement.
