Medical cards make medical sense. Choose the best one for you.

What should you look for in a medical card

When it comes to buying a medical card, high premiums do not guarantee you have the best and most comprehensive. Depending on which company you are buying your premium from, they come with different sets of benefits. However, you should take note of the following:

Treatment for cancer

Cancer remains one of the highest killer diseases in Malaysia. As such, treatment for cancer is among the most expensive and sophisticated. Your medical card should have a comprehensive cover for outpatient cancer treatment. Make sure that your insurance company explains this in detail to you because regular cancer treatment is sometimes not covered in certain medical cards. This, of course, does not mean you should disregard treatment for other diseases such as hemodialysis, physiotherapy and such.

The network of panel hospitals

A lot of insurance policy holders are not aware that not all medical cards cover all the hospitals. Agents sometimes mention the panels that the holder knows like the really popular ones. But what you should be really looking at is whether the medical card covers the hospitals that you have access to. This includes those that are near to your home or those that you have previously been treated at. On top of that, look at medical treatment if you travel overseas (in your job or leisure).

Reimbursement for treatments

One factor that you must really look into is the coverage of costs involved in treatments and surgeries. A medical card does not usually cover the complete cots. Depending on the premium you are paying, it might just cover certain areas while some are cost-sharing (which means you have to top up). A medical card that has full reimbursement for certain types of procedures and surgeries would be a better option than that of the cost-sharing types.

An acceptable insurance limit

While you are paying your premium to help pay for medical bills, they usually come with some form of insurance limit. This refers to the amount you will get from the insurance company to cover any loss. In most cases, the insurance limit is not very high with medical cards, but you should find one that gives you the most you can afford. Take note of the difference they give out between the lifetime and annual limits respectively.
