AIA Med Basic

AIA Med Basic is a yearly renewable insurance plan which provides coverage for hospitalisation and surgical expenses up to age 70. 

This plan is commission-free and no intermediaries are involved in the sales or marketing of AIA Med Basic.

This plan is available to individuals aged 16 to 55, subject to underwriting.

Deductible is a fixed amount you have to pay for the eligible medical expenses incurred as cost sharing. You have to pay the first RM300 out of the eligible medical expenses for any one disability, and we will pay for the rest of the eligible medical expenses.

For example, if the total eligible medical expenses are RM5,000, the amount payable by you is RM300 and we will pay for RM4,700.

Any One Disability means that if two or more confinements are due to the same or related disability, or any complications arising from it, such confinements shall be regarded as one confinement if each of them is not separated by more than 90 days from the discharged date.

Note: For other deductible/co-insurance options, please leave your contact details via Enquiry Form. We will arrange for an AIA Life Planner to conduct an assessment and recommend suitable plans based on your protection and financial needs.

Your coverage begins immediately after your premium payment is confirmed.

You can pay the premium for this plan online with your debit card or credit card.

The premium for this plan is not guaranteed and may be increased in the future. We reserve the right to revise the premium rates by giving you 30 days written notice prior to the next policy anniversary.
