What is Maybank MediRider?
This is a medical insurance by Maybank which helps you reduce the financial burden of personal medical expenses.
With Maybank MediRider, you’ll receive a card which you can use at panel hospitals for hassle-free admission.
What makes this medical insurance so special is that you also have the choice of taking up the extended medical plan with added benefits.
Maybank MediRider can also be attached to selected Maybank life insurance plan to keep you fully covered!
Why should I get the medical extended plan?
The extended plan is called the MediRider Plus.
Among the extended benefits is coverage for procedures such as organ transplants, prosthesis and implant; as well as out-patient benefits for kidney dialysis treatment and cancer treatment.
These extra benefits will only cost you as low as RM71 per year, depending on your age and other factors determined by Maybank Life Assurance.
Who is eligible for this medical insurance?
This medical insurance covers anyone – from babies as old as 30 days of age, to senior citizens who are 75 years old.
However, the entry age is set at 59 years. If you wish to extend the coverage, you can renew this medical plan until you reach the age of 75.
Do I still need to pay any medical costs?
Yes, but only 10% of the total medical bill. This is also known as co-insurance in which you're sharing the medical costs with the insurance provider.
The remaining 90% (which is also the maximum insured amount) will be covered by Mayban Life Assurance.
For example, if your total medical bill is RM10,000 in total, all you need to pay before making your medical claim is RM1,000. Maybank Life Assurance will cover the remaining RM9,000!
