What is VHIS / What are the differences with Traditional Medical Insurance in the Market?

Voluntary Health Insurance Scheme (VHIS), regulated by the Health Bureau, is a personal medical insurance that reimburses eligible medical expenses related to hospitalization and day surgeries. All VHIS must meet several standardized product features including policy terms, minimum coverage, and premium transparency. Although insurers can have different coverages and designs for their Flexi Plans, all terms and coverages cannot be set below the standards of the VHIS Standard.

¹ VHIS Standard Plan does not have a lifetime coverage limit; individual Flexi Plans may have a lifetime coverage limit.
² VHIS Standard Plan has an exclusion period for "Unknown Pre-existing Conditions."
³ VHIS Standard Plan has a waiting period for "Unknown Pre-existing Conditions." The first policy year is a waiting period, partial coverage starts in the second year (25% in the second year, 50% in the third year), and full reimbursement (100%) begins in the fourth policy year.

What is co-insurance and which coverage items have co-insurance?

Co-insurance means that the insured person shares a portion of the costs for certain covered services on a percentage basis.

"Co-insurance" - Calculated based on individual protection items and percentages, shared between the insured and the insurance company.

Assume the insured must bear 20% co-insurance for a claim item, with medical costs of $120,000:
Compensation provided by the insurance company = $120,000 X 80% = $96,000
Costs paid by the insured = $120,000 X 20% = $24,000

Bowtie VHIS includes co-insurance for the following plans:

Bowtie VHIS Standard

  • Prescribed diagnostic imaging tests including CT, MRI, and PET scans: 30% co-insurance

Bowtie VHIS Flexi

  • Prescribed diagnostic imaging tests including CT, MRI, and PET scans: 30% co-insurance
    Supplementary Major Medical (SMM): 20% co-insurance

Bowtie Pink

  • Does not have co-insurance items
Is there any waiting period for VHIS?

Generally, there is no waiting period for illnesses that arise after you enroll in Bowtie VHIS Plan.

Bowtie VHIS only has a waiting period for "pre-existing conditions unknown to you at the time of enrolment." These are conditions that you already had before enrolling, but were unaware of because there were no obvious symptoms, and you did not seek medical advice or treatment.

In simple terms, if you were unaware that you had a certain condition when you enrolled, but are later diagnosed and need treatment for it after enrolling, the eligible expenses will be subject to the following waiting periods and reimbursement ratios.

 

Flexi Plan and Bowtie Pink

Waiting Period (from the effective date of the policy) Reimbursement ratio
The first 90 days 0%
On and after the 91st day 100% of the eligible medical expenses within the benefit limit

 

Standard Plan

Waiting Period (by Policy Year) Reimbursement ratio
1st policy year 0%
2nd policy year 25% of the eligible medical expenses within benefit limit
3rd policy year 50% of the eligible medical expenses within benefit limit
4th policy year onwards 100% of the eligible medical expenses within benefit limit.
Is there a minimum confinement duration requirement for Bowtie VHIS?

”Confinement“ shall mean an admission of the Insured Person to a Hospital that is recommended
by a Registered Medical Practitioner for Medical Service and as an Inpatient as a result of a Medically Necessary condition for a period of no less than 6 consecutive hours. The Insured Person must stay in the Hospital continuously for the entire period of Confinement. You will need to provide the daily room charge invoiced by the Hospital when submit the claims. For emergency treatments involving surgery or other medical services in a hospital, there is no minimum hospitalization time requirement.

In addition to hospitalisation treatment, Bowtie VHIS also covers Day Case Procedure such as endoscopies, without any minimum hospitalisation time requirement.

Does Bowtie VHIS include death benefits?

No, Bowtie VHIS does not include death benefit. Bowtie VHIS is an individual medical insurance that only covers eligible medical expenses for hospitalization and surgery on a reimbursement basis.

The only exception is if the insured unfortunately passes away due to medical negligence in Hong Kong, in which Bowtie VHIS Flexi and BowtiePink will then provide a "Medical Negligence Coverage" of HK$1,000,000.

If you are looking for a product that offers death benefits, do consider purchasing Bowtie Term Life.

Does Bowtie VHIS reimbursement only limit to certain diseases and treatments?

No. Bowtie VHIS reimburses for any accident or disease (except General Exclusion), covering eligible medical expenses related to hospitalization and surgery, including day surgeries and diagnostic procedures like gastroscopy, CT scans, MRI, etc. Common treatment claims include circumcision, appendectomy, hospital treatment for accidents, and cataract surgery.

However, it does not cover treatments unrelated to hospitalization and surgery such as common cold, dental treatments, and outpatient treatments. Exclusions mainly include any non-medical treatments, procedures, medications, tests, or services; dental costs and oral maxillofacial surgery (except emergency treatments and surgeries due to accidents during hospitalization); and traditional Chinese medicine treatments.

Review the coverage table and general exclusion for more detailed compensation limits, covered surgical procedures, and categories. You may also use the Bowtie Claim Calculator for more examples of claims and compensation rates.

If I already have medical insurance (Group/ Individual Medical Plan), how should I choose the Bowtie VHIS that is the most appropriate?

You can consider Bowtie Pink VHIS with a deductible to supplement your existing health insurance (commonly known as "Top-Up" insurance), which can enhance protection while also helps saving on premiums.

Based on the coverage level of your company's group medical insurance, you can decide on an appropriate deductible. When you need to file a claim, you can first claim it from your company's group medical insurance, and the remaining eligible medical expenses, after deducting the deductible, can be covered by Bowtie Pink.

For example, if you opt for the Bowtie Pink VHIS plan with a HK$20,000 deductible, of which the deductible is calculated per policy year, meaning you need to bear the first HK$20,000 of eligible medical expenses each policy year (including expenses claimed from company health insurance), after which Bowtie will cover for the remaining eligible medical expenses.

If needed, you can also seek product advice via WhatsApp at 6016 5980!
