Under our plans, normally our insured members are free to choose the medical provider they prefer, as far as this is within their selected area of cover.
However, different arrangements may apply depending on the type of plan available to you: for example, your policy may be linked to the use of a specific medical provider network. Please check your Table of Benefits and your Membership Card to confirm if any medical network applies to your policy. If your plan is linked to a specific medical network, for your convenience you will find a list of medical providers included in your network within your Membership Pack.
If your policy is not linked to the use of a medical network, then you can choose the medical provider that you prefer.
In this case, if you need help locating a provider in your area, you can use our International Healthcare Provider Finder available via our MyHealth Digital Services.
It will allow you to search for hospitals, clinics, doctors and specialists on a country by country basis, with the ability to narrow down the search to specific regions and cities. You can also search under Medical Practitioner categories e.g. Internal Medicine, as well as on Specialism e.g. General Surgery, Neurosurgery or Traumatology etc.
You are not restricted to using the providers listed in this directory: the medical providers are available in our directory for your convenience only and we do not recommend, endorse or sponsor them, nor their inclusion in our directory implies that we have any agreements in place with them.
If your area of cover includes the USA and you are seeking a medical provider there, we recommend that you contact our third party administrator that we have appointed to administers your policy in the USA. Our third party administrator can assist you with locating a medical provider close to you and scheduling an appointment. The contact details of our third party administrator can be found on the back of your Membership Card.
First, check that your plan covers the treatment you are seeking. Your Table of Benefits will confirm which benefits are available to you, however, you can always call our Helpline if you have any queries.
Normally planned in-patient treatments are subject to our Treatment Guarantee/Pre-authorization process for direct settlement of your medical bills. This process may be different depending on the insurance product available to you – for this reason, please check your Benefit Guide to confirm what process applies to your policy.
For example, if you are covered under one of our standard International Healthcare Plans, the process requires that you submit a Treatment Guarantee Form in advance of treatment by following the process below:
Please note that important terms and conditions are applicable to the medical claiming process. These terms and conditions may vary depending on the product available to you and on the type of insurance contract. We therefore advise you to check your Benefit Guide to confirm the claiming terms and conditions applicable to your policy with us.
You can access your Benefit Guide via MyHealth Digital Services. Simply login via browser or use the MyHealth app, click on “My Policy” and select the “Documents” tab.
For convenience, we summarise below the terms and conditions that normally apply to standard policies in terms of medical claims:
